    Default Someone winning 80+ SNGs every day: is this legit?

    Hello friends,

    I've never been into SNGs so I don't know if this is even worth asking. But I was doing a little research for an article I was writing and found someone who is winning 80 or more SNGs day in and day out.

    Even with multi-tabling and heads-up play, does it strike you odd to see someone winning 80 to 120 SNGs every single day over an extended period of time? I have no idea how many SNGs are actually being played. All I have are win stats.

    This person plays at iPoker and is blocked on Sharkscope.

    Edit: Just found out this person does not play in HU or Double-or-Nothing SNGs. All tournaments have at least six players.

    Keep an eye on this person and report anything else irregular or suspicious and post back here with your findings.

    I'm just curious man. I've seen people play 100K+ SNGs in a year before so I know it's possible to put in some serious volume. But these are all games with at least 6+ players.

    I don't know shit about SNGs. Is it possible or do you instantly think bot?

    What do you mean by winning? Placing or coming first?

    If it's just landing in the money, then it doesn't seem that amazing. If you can say 30 table, and finish in the money in say 1 in 3, and an average game lasts 40 mins, thats 15 finishes in the money an hour, not even 6 hours play to place in 80.

    First place wins. I've been awaring myself on SNGs today and it looks pretty doable with these nutcases running 24+ tables 12 hours a day.

    24-30 tabling SNGs is entirely standard (or used to be on stars while the americans were still there). One give got supernova in like 26 hours playing the $109s. 80 wins per day would be IMO normal for these guys.

    What I don't know is whether the traffic on iPoker is sufficient to allow 24-30 tabling sngs.
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.
