I was playing a 45 man turbo sng and actually blinded out without betting a single hand till my last hand which was KTs, and that was the best hand I had through the whole tourny. The only other hands I was able to even particpate in were when I was the BB and it checked around to me. And they wasnt worth playing. Couldnt even get suited connectors. And never paired one hand.
Made it to 18th by folding. Might should not post this, because it makes me look really bad.

True, I just like to have something that has a chance. I might need to loosen my game some though. I just have a hard time betting J7o, 28s type hands, especially when the table is pretty loose, like this one was.

There comes a moment though that it doesn't matter what your cards are....
If you are 1st to act and you have 4-5xbb in your stack in middle position, you need to use that fold equity as your tool and make a move to get back into the game....

This is when I got the KTs and pushed from the SB position with 650+ chips. Unfortunately I guess the BB thought I was trying to steal the blind and he called with an 8 and somthing like a 5. Then flop came with an 8 and turn was an 8 and I went to another game.

A while ago I remember seeing 1 flop in my first 41 hands, and that was when it was limped to me in the BB. If this was a turbo I guess it would be similar.
