You're getting about 2/3's a circuit per level? Fast tourney... and I loved the min-raise in that format (idiot player)

One of the things I noticed about playing a tournament this way (Quickly or Turbo) is that your range of hands must change as the field of play narrows. I finally managed a first place in the third game we played only because I opened my range of raising hands and calling hands a little more and was able to take down some nice pots towards the end of the tournament.

I think this may apply even before the field narrows, as you move to short-stack status pretty quickly with 10-minute rounds.

SB thinks for a few and announces "All-in".

I think for a millisec and announce I raise "All-in".

I think I would have thought for a little more than a millisecond, but I don't see how you could do much else, especially since you have some damage room.

Keep the reports coming and good luck.
