5-minute levels on the turbos are brutal.

I may spend some time playing these; the number of people who show up not understanding the rules may be substantial.

I'm going to be playing a bunch of them because the players are bad and don't understand when and how to gamble in all in spots. But I didn't run into anyone in the 750 FPP I won tonight who didn't know what game they were playing.

Any theory thoughts for short-stacked TD tournament play? My rule of thumb is to try to commit to a pot with position instead of OOP--- it is better to take an inferior hand in LP than try to wait for a better one in EP or the blinds.

This is true. One thing to note is that limping becomes very popular as the levels increase, and so does checking when a card ahead. You're going to want to do those things, and you're also going to want to take advantage of them with your blind play.

Pot control in general becomes really huge. TT should get a kick out of playing these.
