woot just took 1st against a very solid player
went out in 5th in the other one , had to go afk in that one to do heads up in the other one I took 1st in.
So I come back to the other one short stacked and I push with QQ guy calls with A10 and of course he hits the ace gg 5th.
Now Im in another one

Well if you can't two table don't do it. You are just wasting money if you can't play HU and another SnG at the same time.

Shysti, with a $65.05 BR you shouldnt be two tabling the $5s, you probably shouldnt even be 1 tabling them. Play the stars $1.10 45 player tournies and build your roll there, or maybe the $3 turbos [not sure if that is the exact cost], just not the $5s.

I agree. Also, those stars $1.20 45 player tournys can be a great addition to your starting BR. 1st place is 14x the buyin, and on average it takes about 1-2 hours to complete. I played a few with my friend about 5-6 months ago, and I was shocked as to how fast it dropped from 45 people to 18 for 2 tables. It was less than an hour. I played nothing but ABC poker and made the FT 4/4 times I played them (I know you can't expect that result everytime, but it was pretty easy to make it there). For a small bankroll these tourns are very nice. Just play tight and bet with the goods. If you subtract any bad beats, you should be ITM 50% or more of the time.

Yeah I've played them a bunch of time and done fairly well in them. I know I shouldn't of been multitablling with that roll (like I said I am learning BR discipline) it's an uphill battle j/k
