gator...I play a lot of these and win quite a few..takes discipline early and balls mid to late...like I said Don't be afraid to push relentlessly ifyou have a sift table...the value of the preflop pots are the biggest factor

Hey... I posted this pretty soon after the 12/180s started, but I think it still applies:

12/180 pushbot strategy post

From that post:

2. If I get to under 15 BBs, I'm not thinking of doing anything but pushing if I'm going to play a hand. I guess there might be a place for exceptions, like slowplaying a monster from EP or a stop-and-go from the blinds, but I haven't found a spot yet where I thought they would intuitively be better than a simple push.

Is this still standard thinking in the 12/180s(or turbos anywhere?). Does that include blind levels when there are no antes? 100/200 you're pushing for 2800 if you want to play, etc?

I don't see why you would change your strategy for a turbo. Your strategy should be dictated by stack/blind ratios. It just so happens that you'll be short earlier and will have to go to pushbotting earlier.

pretty close...you can't afford t raise to 600 and fold to a reraise or blank a flop...also people call so light pre that pushing or folding is good at this stage
