Hyper Turbos

Hi folks, and thanks for having me here.

I found this forum last night and spent quite a while reading aboout the subject game, a game I never played much.

Normally my most frequent (I play on pokerstars) game is $2.50 180 player S'nGs, but last night I started playing $1.50 & $3.50 HTs

While I don't particularly like the "shove or fold" way of playing, I'm finding so far the best ROI is actually the experience, and learning to play this way when short-stacked, and eventually heads-up if I get that far.

I'm not a "extreme-multi table" player and normally play a max of 4 tables, depending on the tourney style. Personally, the folks I see playing 20-30 tables, or even 90 according to PS staff, totally defeats what I enjoy about the game, but that's a story for another thread.

Which leads me to the questions:

1. When you folks play HTs, do you normally play single tables or multis?
2. Can the experience of learning to play HTs effectively carry over to a different style of tourney or Turbo or regular speed S'nGs as noted above, when short stacked.

Again, thanks for having me.

usually multi table

yes, even the 180's have a lot of shove/fold play in them, particualarly if you want to win your fair share you will need a very good shove/fold game late.

I play hyper-turbos on Merge....usually don't multi-table them for I feel it is easier to get reads and pick up on players' shoving ranges...at times ill play an MTT along with it....Ill admit hyper-turbos have defo improved my push/fold game however u have to make sure you don't have a hyper-turbo mindset in a regular tourney....Keep grindin'

I play STT hyper turbos mainly at the moment, but I still play MTT's which are hyper turbos.

I think because you're always short stacked in hypers and if you're studying on your push/fold game vs different types of opponents it certainly does improve your short stack game in any game.
