Well, I won an SnG last night! First one ever. And not because I played it all that well (see hand below). But I figured out the trick: Don't get dealt AA!! Never saw them; never busted! Never got sucked-out on at all, actually. Saw 3 other players get it all-in with the "Pocket Blanks" and lose... Here's what can happen if you make the mistake of getting it all-in with AA (and one of my best suck-out performances ever, en route to taking down the SnG):

I'm such a donk! 
Oh, and here's why AA should be an auto-fold... didn't have as good of luck in the next SnG:

I battled back to the lead, lost an all-in pre-flop with KK, battled back to 2nd, then lost to AA when I pushed with junk (suited connectors). Finished 3rd. And it ended 1 hand later when vmkalika pushed with junk... 
And of course I was playing cash tables at the same time. All together, played just under 600 hands. I had AA 9 times. Got 2 walks from the BB, took down the blinds 4 times, took down a pot on a flop (won about 5 x BB net), and lost this all-in pre-flop hand. Oh, and just remembered, finished 9th in another SnG: AA vs. 44 pre-flop. 
Anyway, still haven't won a showdown with AA since 2007 (live or online).
