1.10/45 Sats vs 1.10/45 Turbos

[MJBuddy]

Sats pay 11 T$ to top 4, Turbos are 14 for first, 10 second, 7 third, 5 fifth, 3/2 sixth/seventh.

I'm thinking I can abuse the sat more, especially on a FT. Big stacks that I want to avoid tangling with with FE will fold, and when I'm the big stack (frequent occurance, but in the turbo even my big stack is a crapshoot), I can fold to my pay.

However, one is twice as fast as the other, which affects my hourly. I'm unsure of where to best invest my time?

[MJBuddy]

Bleh; after a few hours of playing my general consensus is that I hate 10 minute blinds in a 45 because it diffuses my aggression ramping with the levels and keeping my tables confused.

That + I'm pretty sure these sats are not as soft as the turbos simply on fact that the people who have realized they exist can breathe, which puts them above half the field of a typical 45.

I think if you want to play sats you are better off with the 2.20's that pay a bunch of entries. They have turbos and regular speed so whichever you prefer.

[MJBuddy]

Yeah pretty much what I'm sticking to.


I can easily grind these 2.20s all day too, the lower variance will be enjoyable.

[mflip]

Yeah, and it shouldn't be hard to get 30 or 40 seats this week.

[MJBuddy]

Except when...twice in one night I get called down by huge donks with nothing and get sucked out on.



These tournies = Soft. PSTars cold decking me is getting pretty [censored] hard :-/
