+1 ^^^^ this. We all know that long-term poker profit does not come from being lucky, its from skill and edge. Ram has indicated the main points you would need to focus on for these style games.I play them occasionally, not on full tilt but still hyper turbos on pokerstars. Variance in these games is huge, probably the worse of all game types.
The very best players will lose 100 buy-ins in hyper/super turbos often enough. Best strategy is you need to study ICM and your shove/fold game has to be good. Playing 8 games with an ok profit literally means nothing in them. You need to play probably 5000+ games to get an idea of what your real average profit would be.
hi,
anyone playing those? how big is the variance in them and what is the best strategy to beat them? i played 8 2.25nl 6max and ended up with an ok profit.
I really don´t like play those SnG because i really don´t like to gamble, and when i do i usually go bad. However when i play it i usually wait for the right spot with the right hand. Basically go all in with anything higher than AJ and JJ. But I must tell you it´s not my favorite kind of game.
