So, I love hyper sit and go. It's basically push fold. The basic strategy is to just play very tight. Most players don't know how to deal with 1 minute blinds, and can't sit still too long. The trick is to wait for a good hand even with the raising blinds. Icm is important too. In addition spr is a ratio you have to know. This game is more about understanding the structure than solid poker in a lot of ways. Knowing when to push is just as important as what with. Big stack theory will help any player once they've doubled up. I deposited 20 dollars and gone to 31 in 10 or 20 games. Which is about 3 or 4 hours of play.

When are you going to step up. Do you think they get harder as the stakes get higher?

I am not sure, as I haven't played above 1.10. I'm hoping not. 😀

I hate hyper and express games

:DPlaying in hyper and express poker games is almost like playing a different sport altogether. It takes the basic rules of the game and pushes them ten fold. The bluff game get pushed and true play doesn't shine like in regular tourneys. Stay away from hyper and express PERIOD:p

Sometimes I try some hyper turbo tournaments but you can't have this kind as your basic one. You can't use your edge because as you have already mentioned it is a push/fold game. I believe the 1.10 buy in are harder because it is easier for you to get eliminated because in the early stages they literally play with any two. So you have to compete against a range close to 100%.

This is only partly true. While skill edge is reduced, it still exists. The reason they are worth playing in my opinion is that 1,you CAN make positive roi, 2 the roi is accumulated at a much faster rate. I don't want to spend a hour winning 4 bucks. I'll gladly spend 10 minutes of my time. A 30% roi on a 10 minute time is more profitable than 75% over a hour or two. So yes, you can still make a buttload. The strategy to win consistently is more push fold due to reduced stack size and increased blinds. But push fold requires solid range guessing. This is a purely exploitative poker game. There's no gto to it.

Is it a lot of preflop pushing? Because then estimating hand ranges doesn't really help...

10-20 games are hardly example... but will folow thread and hope for more useful example in future...

Yes and no. I try to raise enough to block junk, but not enough to go all in sometimes. Postflop play requires 10x more skill since it may be done in one flop. If I raise 3 bb at early stages, that's 60 chips. If they call, the spr is about 10. This is due to lower stack sizes. You have to play really right till the bubble, because you're pot committed pretty much every hand.
