Farewell to Sit 'n Go's

This week's episode of the 'Deuce plays' podcast finally made me decide to abandon online sit n' go's completely... The show features an interview with DeucesCracked-instructor Casey 'Bones' Diener about the current state of online sit 'n go's.
There's no more money in those games,
everyone's sort of solid.
Well, most players have a least a few vague but correct ideas about push/folding these days. Figuring out when to go all-in and when to fold is about all it takes (besides running good, of course).
The edges are getting thinner. Even the fish have heard about ICM.
A Return On Investment of about 3% on mid- and high-stakes games is the best one can expect. Making good money this way becomes a long and hard grind. Multi-tabling up to 12 tables, playing at least 100 games a day and having a good rakeback deal are bare necessity's to get some cash out of sit n' go's.
Playing poker is all about easy money.
Grinding sit 'n go's turns it into just another day job.
No more of this for me.
Cash games are the way to go...
