Avoided Bad Beats

#1 26th January 2008, 10:24 PM

So today i entered a SNG tournament with 90 people on full tilt and throughout the whole tournament i never put a bad beat on anyone and I only had a couple bad beats put on me. The ones put on me were from short stacks. I ended up winning the tourney and it was a double stack tourney. I want to suggest double stack tourney's because they give you more time to wait on the good hands.

I was wondering what your thoughts are on double stack tourneys and i want to wish good luck to all of you.

3 months ago I would have said they were best online but since they changed them to turbos and added knockouts, they are ruined in my opinion.

Nah im not a fan of the old double stack. People seem to think "hey ive got more chips so i can afford to call more raises". With double the chips a lot of players turn into calling stations which ruins my LAG game

Here's the solution, don't play LAG against calling stations

Double stack and knockouts? Sounds like fun but I've never seen them on PS... are they there and I have just missed them, or don't they offer either of these options?
