Default Re: Age Old question about early tourney strategy

I would treat this like an online turbo 45person sng. I've found the best way to play these are to try to take advantage of any +EV situation. You want to steadily build your stack up. Nothing is worse than being on the bubble and having less than 8 BB's. I definitely tend to take more chances in the types of games. I don't mind getting my money in on a flip b/c that is the only way you're going to make the money. That being said, gavin's aggressive/table captain approach will probably suit you best. TJ is a legend, but when you're talking about turbos, you can't play as tight as he does, you'll blind yourself to death.
I don't think these kinds of tourneys are very +EV.
