Default New hellcat stt on party poker

Just noticed the new game after todays updates.

They start with 2000 chips, 3 min clock and pay out after 15 minutes. I guess a lot of clock running will decide who wins these.

Any strategy for them?

Ugh im not sure im happy about this, alot of party fish may go over to these instead of the speeds.

Edit: Only at the $3 and $6 level so i don't care that much.

so in theory we will have some multiway pushes at the end.
Interesting to work out some math:
- how does the stack matters in respect of the blind level being the blinds lmited.
- how does the equity change vs time (teta), at 10 seconds to the end if you are 4th in chips u push ATC and if the delta between you and third is >blinds you have no chance unless somebody has a hand that will make him jump in position.

Then some situation might arise ex:
10 players, last hand:
UTG is chip leader with 6000
UTG+1 is second with 5000
UTG+2 is third with 4000
everybody else is equal with 715 chips therefore MP1 will push and everybody else will call and unless there is a chop the winner will go in the money so UTG+2 will have to push ATC no matter what...tons of this situation might arise...
I think it would be very limited to exploit.

sure, but there will be a "last hand" I suppose, in that case if tot chips of players from 4th and below> 3rd player it will be exactly what I said.

What a crap shoot!!

I just watched one of the end of these and no-one seems to have the faintest idea about tactics at the end. Had ppl in 4th and 6th out of 6 left folding the last hand in ep.
