Question for today: What are your suggestions for low variance turbo sngs?

The options for me are: Hyper turbo 6 max on merge ( 300 chips 2 min blinds)

Super turbos on Bovada ( 1500 chips , 3 min blinds)

Double or nothings ( standard stacks, 5 min blinds 9 man on merge, 6 max on bovada)


Ty for any and all insights!

really? hyper 6 man low variance? anything that contains the word hyper has insane variance and you need very big bankroll.

Regular stts or regular husng are probably the lowest variance.

Stay away from turbos if you want a low variance. DoNs have low varicance just cause all you gotta do is double up.

DON will have the lowest variance, but it depends on your own skill level tbh, the more leaks you have the more variance you will encounter.

i've found that the lowest variance will be double or nothings. hyper turbos will have much more variance because it's a fold/shove/luck thing. personally, i want to keep my variance to a minimum so i'll play dons and mix in a standard 9 player sng if i'm running good.

Yes the reg ones are the ones with lowest variance. In hyper the blinds go up so fast that you might not even have a good hand as your stack goes down each turn.

any hyper thing= high variance.

any standard thing= low variance.

DON = your chances of getting on the money is high.

Can't stand turbos, especially the 300 chip hyper turbos on Carbon. These tournaments mainly benefit only hyper aggro people who can bluff people efficiently or donkeys that shove with anything.

Why don't you try Fifty50 on Stars? It has the lowest variance.

None of these will have a low variance, but the DoN's will prob. have the least of them all.

Anything other than "hyper turbos" will be a game of low variance according to Einstein's theory of relativity.:D
I would suggest the game with 5 min blind levels out of the three options you provided.

I don't really think so as these games usually have high rakes and lead to low ROI%

Low variance and turbos don't go together. The one with the lowest variance out of the 3 is of course Double or Nothing as the blinds rise the slowest. Much less shoving and more post-flop play.
