Party adds Hellkat poker

[Ono]

Not seen this before. Just seems to be exactly like a normal nl speed stt sng but with a 15 min time limit. Once time limit is up top 3 chip stacks are paid.

Crapshoot or what?

Definitely not my kind of game, count me out.

Some fish may love this format, hopefully they will try out their skills in real poker after winning in this format. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

There must be some kind of strategy to this form of poker. Anyone an idea?

[JavaNut]

You would get to play about 10 hands I guess.

I can't see anything but steal-steal-steal-steal. You can't wait to hit a hand and you need to be in top 3.

But as everyone might be hyper aggreesive, you might even be able to fold into the money 50% of the time [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

As the timer gets low I assume you should just get more LAG-ish as you would if the blinds were very large.

Not necessarily... after 10mins once you have the chip lead you want to play super TAG and waste as much time as possible. Use your time bank every hand etc.

I have played 3 games of this and won every one so far doing this...

I just watched one of these play out and it looks retarded. Once the clock hit 14mins the 3 chip leaders just ran their timers to the max to ensure victory. This is obv a legitimate strategy considering the nature of the game, but I also wouldn't spread the game on account of this. And what is with Party's obsession with spreading a million different variations of hold 'em tourneys? I'd much rather see more conventional games added than this crap.
