Turbo Satellite Strategy?

Hey I've been playing a lot of $0.25 + $0.05 Daily Dollar turbo satellites. I only have like $13 left in my BR so this is all I can really play safely.

1st-2nd gets $1
3rd gets $0.25

How should I be playing these? I feel that I don't want to limp or raise in the beginning because there's those people that just go all in with anything, but if I play too tight the blinds just keep raising while my stack keeps decreasing.

Tight early, only play high pocket pairs and see flops with like AJ+.

When you get down to 4-5 people or 100/200 blinds open up your range to almost anything from position. If you folded to get to this point your stack is probably still pretty healthy, go after people with up to a 3000 stack size with 1500ish stack, and only from position like the button or cutoff.

When there are only three people left there will still be very tight play, if you still only have around 1500 you're going to have to take a chance and double up somewhere, stealing is less effective but still possible if you have the stack for it. If you're around 3000 you should still definitely be stealing, people will fold away if you threaten their SnG life.

Thank you very much salim, I'll be sure to keep these tips in mind.

Don't play them ....buy in for 1.00 direct and save some money

These are a good way to build a small bankroll.

I have played 112 of these with a $15.40 net profit.
ROI - 45.83
ITM - 57.14

I basically played them daily in January to qualify for the 'one a day' Ironman freeroll.

You need to start off tight and only play premiums while the donks go crazy and knock themselves out. Be patient cuz only one double up will put you in a strong position.

As it gets shorthanded (3-5 players) with blinds getting up there, its more about stealing and playing vs the stacks rather than your cards. Ie. try to stay away from the big stack and pick good spots for stealing.

Unless you are willing to see a raise, don't limp. Position is everything because some donk WILL raise you with any A or suited K or broadway or pair. At these levels, you want the last decision.

With only 9 guys, theres usually 4-5 donks at the table at the beginning anyways, I like watching them murder each other.
