Recently I deposited 50$ on FTP...
I was playing the under 3$ sngs, went up and down never above 100$ never below 5-10$ or so...
I noticed that when I was playing in a SNG where the top 3 spots or so would take my balance over 100$, I would not catch anything, lose all the coin flips, and lose every key situation I was put in... however, when I was lower in balance, to where, even If I won, My balance would not go over 100$
, The flops would hit me occasionally and a decent amount of my hands would hold up.
... 100$ is the min, balance for cash out.(in other words, the longer the money passes between players... stays on the site, the more rake it spawns)
I usually dont play the SNG's, only the large field tournaments on tilt, cuz I kind of suspected this before, however my recent experience has pretty much almost confirmed, my suspicions to me...
... just thought it was a weird observation... something other small depositors like me could look for... and Ya, it could be all coincidence.
