yes I do and that is where I generate most of my profit. They are supersoft compared to stars

lol was just looking for a second opinion, played a couple last nite and was shocked when 4 people went out in one within five minutes and i dont remember any of them having huge hands

Exactly the same happened to me.  I played 4 $5 jackpot SNG on BlueSq the other day and in all of the we were down to 5 players within 2 levels.

Never seen such soft games but the speed of the structure 7min levels 1k starting made it an absolute joke.  I normally play stars for S&G but heard these were soft so gave it a go.

If you can avoid the bad beats and dont mind getting to all in o"clock within 20 mins its okay.

the normal STTs have 9 min levels and 1500 chips, but a very good feature on ipoker is that from $10 they have "double stack" STTs (start with 150 BBs) and these can be very profitable for the patient type. You do suffer some horrific beats, but that is mainly down to the large range and increased frequency of hands that will call you on ipoker (they have to suckout sometime - dont they?).

Do I win a prize for a positive plug of our sponsors?

[hi_am_chris]

only concern i have with them is how quickly do they normally fill up? i was playin early morning and they were taking forever, do they fill up quicker in the evenings?

Thanks for the tip swinebag....i had only tried the jackpot fellas. Deepstacks do sound like a good move.

I was playing from 8-11pm and they filled pretty quick.

When I left, cooste had a huge stack of chips, no doubt on his way to another FT

Managed to get 7th in this one Rob.

It was a pleasure meeting you. and although we were not even in a pot together on either table i reckon we co-captained them beautifully!

I was happy not to play a pot with you but as for the co-captain thing......Here is a special pic from saturday of me in table captain mode
