Default Re: PSTourney turbo help/strategy.

The trick to playing these 10c turbos is:

1. Early in the tournament, I wouldn't play much differently from a regular micro limit mtt, other than raise more than normal with JJ+ because people will call anyway since it's only 10 cents. Try to see cheap flops with low PPs, SCs, etc. Don't donk off your chips with hands like KTo. Contrary to popular belief, you shouldn't be playing trash during the 10/20 blind level just because it's a turbo.

2. When the blinds get big, steal aggressively especially from LP. People fold way too much, especially after the antes start. I've seen many horrible folds late in these things.

The $5.50 turbos are obviously harder, mainly because more people understand short stack play. You can't steal the blinds if someone ahead of you has already gone all in.
