Default Only Saw 2% Out Of The Blinds and Cashed.

THF Player of the Year
Wow! I don't think I ever cashed in a SnG, seeing only 2% of the flops out of the blinds. I had poor cards mostly but stayed patient. I was lucky I did catch some strong hands in the blinds.

Wow you must have had absolutely terrible cards out of the blinds but I guess you got them when it counts well done nice job to capitalize on the hands you got and get in the money

Haha way to go! Pick your moments and it's easy. Hope you have better luck in the blinds next time even though you've shown you don't need it!

Quickest SNG for me was 3 hands

It was only a 10 seat table, each of the first two hands half the table was All In and only one winner. I folded both times and it was down to 3 of us and all went All In. I Lost and there was only one winner and it was over.

Congrats on staying patient in your game!
