It has pros and cons like any other. I don't like it because the blind is always squeezing you and you always have to make decisions based on it.

It's more math than poker. I like my poker as deep stacked as possible so you don't have to push or fold only after a short time.

Exactly. The advantage of fast blinds is, that the tournament take less time to complete. On most sites you also pay less rake. The disadvantage is, you get less time to play, and you play with shorter stacks on average. There is a pretty big difference between hyper SnGs and hyper MTTs though. Most hyper SnGs only start with 25BB, while most hyper MTTs start with 100BB. For me turbo SnGs are fast enough already, and I dont like to start with only 25BB. So I am not a huge fan of hyper SnGs including the popular Spins. But for me hyper MTTs can be ok to mix in with other games.

No, I don't like them at all. These are bingo games where the best doesn't win, but rather the one with the luckiest.

Hello, Everybody!
Sometimes I like to play the hyper-turbo tournaments! Especially, if these are satellites...
Because for the small money can quickly to win a ticket, and to enter on any serious tournament!

Yes, I really like it because you will not play for 8 hours in a tournament that lasts a very long time and often this time is too wasted simply because many players understand that you are just spending time empty in a hyper turbo game, you are already playing poker, you can't wait 8 hours for your dream map and playing only with it tests the players' level of play and you understand how strong the players are

What do you think the hyper-turbo tournaments? Do vou like? Why?
I hate hyper-turbo tournaments. Everyone plays with junk, it's not poker, it's bingo. I prefer slow tournaments or turbo tournaments.

I don't like hyper-turbo tournaments. I like tournaments where I can play more calmly, where I can analyze my moves and my opponents.

I like them, its just a matter of understanding the icm for the format.

If you dont practice with an icm tool - then I would do like Prahlad advises ......and practice avoidance.

Hyper - turbo tournaments are for people who have little time. It's hard to play them without a lot of luck. The main thing is not to get upset because of the aggressive actions of other players at the table.

I've played a small number of hyperturbo tournaments, I didn't like it at all, it's a hostage to time, and you have to play with medium strength or hope for luck and wait for luck, but because of the rapidly growing blinds, my luck may not be in time.

The pace is much faster so you often have to go all in just to try and keep up with blinds which often makes it more of a luck then your actual skill.

Hello.
I more like when the tournament is not quick from the begin. Because it almost looks like casino. You can be strong player but you can't change it anyway.

Hyper turbos are actually so playable - well as long as you have no problems to make decisions in split second lol ...

And individuals above who compared that with B-I-N-G-O have probably never heard of FLIP tournaments :rolleyes:

In this tournaments you can have not so big winrate as in regular tournaments, and there very big variance. But sometimes $/hour may be better...

I’ve gone off them and go out of my way to avoid them. The blinds push you to silly decisions so it can leave it more up to chance.

Agree. Feels like throwing the dice all the time. No tactics, just pure luck.

It's all down to snap judgement calls. As an older man, I just cannot do the math or try to put my opponents on a range in that short amount of time. I rarely play them.

they are more dynamic tournaments, and with more aggressive strategies, you have to play with connected and suited cards more often, I like them because they are tournaments, as the name says, they are faster.

I think that these are tournaments in which luck is more important than the skills of the players. I don't like such tournaments because they are more like roulette in a casino.
