I still feel that u should be putting in a mix of sng"s mate to iron out some of the variance which was the whole point of including them in the first place!!
As we have seen the 180"s are prone to massive downswings(100+) in some cases and can be so demoralising and confidence crushing when u are playing well and just getting punished in them.
Throwing in some 18/27/45/90"s(non-turbo imo) builds back up the confidence when u get a cash, which is more often than when solely playing in the 180"s, and would help build the roll back up and hopefully sustain it at a decent lvl until the big mtt score comes along.
Not saying u should not be playing the 180"s but from the original post it seemed like u would be mixing it up rather than just solely playing these.
Just my opinion and hopefully bit of advice as I used to grind these on regular basis so know that a decent ROI is possible but as per usual will probably get slated and be in the minority!!

I agree with this in principal.
A big part of how I schedule my sessions is how I time it around my personal life. The 180"s are good for that as they will last a maximum of two hours. So I can come home at 6pm, reg until half 7 and be done by half 9 when my girlfriend gets in from work. I can do this two or three times a week and increase my volume quite nicely compared to just the odd weekend session.
I believe that the majority of the non turbo sit n go"s will last a minumum of 3 hours, it doesn"t really fit. I will either have the time to grind 12 hour sessions or the time to play short 2-3 hour bursts, not much inbetween hence playing 180"s.
Also the general concensus has been that the 18man,45man, 90man are more reg filled so don"t immediately seem more appealing.

Mate the 45"s don"t last 3hrs!!......non-turbos 90 mins if I remember right and on Tilt they only had turbo 90"s and think they were about 2hrs max.
Yes they may be reg filled but if u are playing good solid poker early days and picking spots against the fish to build stack its pretty certain to make final 2 tables and then that"s where the real play and luck aspect might come into affect to see u through to FT.
U wont know how u find them until u try a couple and see what they are like.....what damage is that going to do?....$20-30 from the BR which is fine by me so u can get a feel for them......maybe try at $5.50 & $11 lvl to see which suits.
As Brian says keep plugging away and the mtt"s will come but imho the sng"s are there to keep the BR ticking over for when this happens.

Even playing one or two single table sngs will give you a couple of freerolls into mtts if you cash in them. If I have had a long run of not cashing in mtts will play a few of these just to try and get bankroll up slightly, think of them as satellites into mtts, wouldn"t even contemplate trying to make a living or massive profit from these though.

$644.63.
Will give some low variance deeper stacked sit n go"s a whirl later today - 45man, 90man etc. Just $1.50"s and $2.50"s to get a feel for it and get some confidence back.
35vpps away from Silverstar so will make that comfortably by the weekend.
