GBH Turbo Tuesday BAP
I will be playing the $80 Tuesday night turbo on August 5th. It's a 40 person field with the top 5 being paid. I am selling up to 50% for even value.
As for my poker results, You can check me out on OPR or view some of the other threads I have posted about my poker trips. I won a similar style tournament earlier this year for around $400.
10%-$8
20%-$16
T8 gets a 2% freeroll for helping me with the partypoker transfer.

With that being said, I have some major problems with how it was run. The table I was at ran 7 handed for like 40 minutes while the other tables had 9 & 10, this happend twice in the first 3-4 hours. Which makes a huge difference in a turbo...
I started off the tourney really well, and had the chip lead for the first 45 mins. I was comfortable and wasn't scared of playing any of the people that sat at my tables. Had it been a regular tournament instead of a turbo I think I would have been ITM easily, but as we got closer to the money with blinds of 2000/4000/400 I had a streak of about 12 hands without even seeing a face card. This continued as it went up to 3k/6k/500 and I wasn't able to pick up any decent cards to double up with.... Basically the whole final table was just a shove fest with no flop play at all. I stayed and watched after I was eliminated and only seen 2 flops from then until the tourney finished. But I can't complain because it is a turbo and that's usually how they are played.
gg tho. nice roulette bink! love hearing shit like that
People have there different likes/dislikes, and playing twice as many blinds as the other tables isn't mine. Yes I know you got got to open up, and play more aggressive but It doesn't always work.
& Thanks, I thought it was pretty funny!
hell yeah i do, give me more hands to steam roll villians
in a turbo, I want as many hands as possible to push edge on weaker live players.
Being big stacked should just add to your advantage for those who are good live players.. And why do you get more hands if you are short stacked? Also what do you consider short stacked for live play? Just wondering how much live you have played.
its simple math that with less people at the table, the more hands you get to play. 1 or 2 less people to act, etc
with 15 minute blinds in a turbo structure, being "deeper" or "big stacked" has merit for only a short SHORT amount of time and only applies in opening levels, until which point everyone is less than say 20bb effective, which is what I consider being "short"
with 15 minutes, you are lucky to make a full orbit at a full ring table.. id rather see as many deals as possible to hopefully get deep enough that I can start crushing shorties when they wither away to 8bb and are shoving alot wider
short handed and big stacked is good poker! and my preference as well :laugh:
in this particular case though, with such quick blinds, you are better off seeing as many as possible. id rather that, then be literally blinding out at a full ring live table :-\
In full-table events, play will halt on a table 3 or more players short of the table with the most players. Play will halt on other game formats (ex:
6-handed and turbos) at TDs [sic] discretion. Not halting play is not a cause for a misdeal and TDs may elect not to halt play at their discretion. As the event progresses, when manageable & appropriate for the type of game, at TD’s discretion tables will be more tightly balanced.
