Default 1.10/45 Sats vs 1.10/45 Turbos

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?

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.

Yeah pretty much what I'm sticking to.


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

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

At least. I plan to exceed this number by a bit.

Would be down with a prop bet next week.

Are these SNGs or hourly MTTs or what?

And I'm assuming these are to the 10$ buyin 100k garonteed thing? This is rediculous. I'm playing this every week. When does it run??? (Ive been out of town for the weekend and am at work now)

One last question, if you are already registered for the 10$ tourney, and win another seat, they ship you the 11$ T$ right away instead of having to unregister every time??

Thanks for the info

If you're already registered, you get T$11 automatically. (they can't register you for a 2nd time...)
