Rising Star
Bronze Level
I feel that this is one of the greatest tournaments available at a micro-stakes level online. The buy-in is only $0.10 + $0.01, there are usually only about 1000 players and prize pool is $5,000. The issue I am having with it is adjusting to the structure because blinds raise every 5 minutes and it only takes about 20 minutes to get to the point where you have a short-stack if you are unable to quickly gain chips. I am used to playing tournaments with regular structure (10 minute blinds), so this has been a real challenge.
So, I just busted out of the tournament and would like some insight on ranges people play in turbo tournaments once they are around 12-18 BB. I was at about 14 BB in MP and shoved A4 suited on a table where I had no information on any of the players because I'd just been transferred to a new table. Is this standard or too aggressive in your view? I can post a recording of the hand and give the link if anyone needs more information.
Do any of you use GTO ranges common in cash games for turbo tourneys?
Hand information:
Preflop
Hero is MP+1 (A4s) all in 14 BB
Villain is BTN (JJ) re-raises all-in 23 BB
SB folds
BB folds
Board: Kh, 9d, 3s, 7d, 6h
Villain wins pot 5,950
