I really need your advice on playing the Turbo (2-x 3-x) 1.10 - 4.30 buy-in.
How to play these tournaments, tight-passive does not work (my stack kill blinds)
Lower than 10 Ace and I'm afraid to enter the bank or pocket pairs 99 and lower.
What to do? Have strategy for tournaments like this? :mad:

Ps. Wildly I apologize for my English.
But I think the point is made. :p

At the beggining stages play tight-agressive, when you are at the middle stage find spots to steal blinds, and shove any call any all in if you dont have 12-13+ with TT+ AQ+ maybe AJ. They have some variance, so play more days and see if you like it or not.

In early stage of tournament fold trash hands but if you get AK AQ or smthing like that go all in to double up when you have a better stack play aggressive to steal the blinds and even maybe on the flop you can get a set or smthing. After getting a big stack and when youre ITM you can play passivly but aslo try to steal many blinds. And if you hit a good card raise preflop about 4bbs

you can start by selecting your strating hands depending on wich position you are, for exemple UTG+1.2.3 play top 5% starting hand 88+, AJs+, KQs, AKo. and loosen up in midposition and the hijack seat to 10% 77+, A9s+, AJo+, KTs+, QTs+, KQo. and playin all broadway, all pairs, any suited ace from the CO and Button. all that, if you're first to act. there's another factor is how the stacks are deep, in the begining of these tournaments you can make it 5xbb to go, when the blinds get higher you can make it 3 bb or 2.5.
If someone open the pot before you, you have to play the starting hands -1 or -2 seats. let's say you're in midposition and someone open utg, you should play your starting hand of UTG position (top 5%). raise with top pairs, AKs. and call with JJ.TT.99.88. play your hands aggressivelly and don't be afraid to comit all your chips. that's the tight aggressive style.

Like the post above, you need to gamble.
And most of the players do, going all in with nothing and kicking out AK-A10 by catching a pair - at least in the early stages to double up.
This always drives me crazy when loosing to these kind of hands :mad: :)

My tactics in 1.1$ are next.First you must decide how many you want to spend on re bays (usually 10$) then i prefer to register in last second of late reg.when the BB is your initial buy in if you have luck in 2-3 hands you will can go from 3k to 100k stack then make 30k add on and that it.
