For SNGs on FTP, I'd say most people won't bother going past $55+$5 turbos that's where the game starts to get tough.

There is no ceiling but most players hit a point where the money starts to be significant for them and in their mind the downswings get too much to handle. At this stage many players stop moving up.

I'm member #44,233, and MSmith who registered last month is #181,132. So are we assuming about 200,000 2+2er's ?

'bout tree fiddy when gimmick accounts and bans are taken into consideration.

Having 25-30 BI sitting in a poker account would get to be ev- in my marriage at anything above 100nl. So i guess that is my ceiling for now.

Much respect regained for taking my sarcasm so calmly!

Good post sir!

As far as myself, still donating!
