Better than spending 4 hours at the 1-2 cash games. I play on Carbon and they're on the Merge Network. I play a lot of MTTs and play in the 1-2 cash games. I won a 4k guaranteed recently. I feel your pain on playing 4 hours and cashing 30 bucks but if AQ holds up you're in the ball game. I just look at it as great practice. Every hand you see is a tad bit more seasoned you get. I'm lucky enough to close enough to Tunica to go play live to get the best of both worlds. I play 1-3 and 2-5 cash games and they have a sweet weekly $150 buy in 12K GTD tourney with 30 minute blinds.
