Default 180 TURBO SNG $12

Has anyone been playing these? I've tried two but have also spent at least four hours just watching some tables play.

I plan on playing a lot of these over the next few weeks and will provide my comments on how best to br EV+ in them.

For now I will just say that ordinary tight early may not always be the best play here as the blinds move way to fast.

The ones I've watched so far are filled with an amazing amount of donks and it may be relatively easy to double or even triple up early (with some reads and a little good card help).

As always, aggression near bubble appears paramount to reaching the final table.

Sorry the thread should have said 180 TURBO SNG $12 at Stars but I don't know how to edit a title.

Hi Rocket
I havent had a chance to play these yet but would like to.Maybe later this evening we can get some THF players to all join the same game together? Would be alot of fun. I wont be able to play till later this afternoon..were going to the movies (Death Sentence) around 200pm.
I like the 4/180 so this should be fun!

Only leaders can edit a title...I've just edited it for you (while gaining some of those cool THF credits in the process, noting the change here )

Around the first break. First hour. The key to Turbos like this is chip management and position poker. The blinds get ready, be ready to push with any random two cards.
