Super turbo SnG's

Is it worth grinding 5 dollar super turbo SnG's this weekend? Will it be profitable or ridiculously profitable

Thoughts?

If you get a ticket to the 100K then if 100k people play it, then your overlay will be worth $1 on average.

So if your time is worth what a lap dancer makes in a few seconds then it's profitable.

Are you high? How is does me trying to enter the 100k freeroll (which has like 3k registered so far) have anything to do with my original post? <.<

Is there some sort of promo on FT? I thought I saw something about it at some point.

Nm saw it -- it is just a freeroll entry.

There's actually more play in these than I thought there would be as compared to the Stars hyper turbos
