 I just won the .10 360-player turbo crapfest on Stars
...and I only had to hit one 3-outer to do it. Here's the trimmed history: http://www.flopturnriver.com/Online-...ment-4639.html
The last hand was super-sick. I had my mouse over the "Call all-in" area, but he unexpectedly just completed the small blind instead of shoving, so when I did my insta-click, I minraised instead of putting him all-in. Anyways, here's the final hand:

Button (t147364)
Hero (SB) (t392636)
Hero's M: 11.55
Preflop: Hero is SB with 9 , A
Button calls t10000, Hero raises to t40000, Button calls t20000

Outcome: Hero won t294728
This thing is mostly preflop play, but when I did manage to get into some postflop situations, I played them pretty well. Here was my biggest hand at the final table:

The best thing of all was that while I was in the middle of playing this one, I only had .07 and a bunch of FPPs left in my account. Getting boosted to $8.57 is a godsend... now I can hopefully play a few of the $1.20s without going broke when my AA gets outdrawn by a Q6 who has one of his 6s blocked.
And yes, I know I'm not practicing good bankroll management right now. I recently made a $500 withdrawal and then had a huge downturn, and until I get back up to like $30 it's going to be impossible for me to do otherwise.
For a good time, try these things. It's kind of fun for open-shoving AJs be a +EV play. At $0.10, they'd probably be cheap fun while drunk. Just don't convince yourself that moving up in stakes -- to something that costs more than a dime -- would be a good idea.
I would love to see a $0.10 rebuy. That would just be ridiculous.
Oh yeah, here's that 3-outer for your viewing pleasure. Keep in mind that these tables are super loose, so shoving AJ over a raise as a SS is pretty standard play in my opinion.

Don't feel too bad for CO. The whole reason I was short-stacked was that his AK beat my TT two hands before when he was all-in, or we wouldn't even have been in this situation.
