In my case I prefer fast tournaments, if you are lucky enough to start well, you can get good results, although I do not dislike slow tournaments either.

In fact, everyone plays such tournaments for as long as they have time. I rarely play deepstack tournaments because I don't have that time.

If I have enough time, I play normal tournaments. Turbo and hipper turbo tournaments has different configuration and need fast reactions, which often has as a result wrong bets.

I also got from the satellites, but I was eliminated before winning places. You have to try from time to time, it won't win by itself :)
Me too, but time to time i win from the satellites. Its a good way to be in the tournament without risking to much money! :)

I like the turbo tournaments.

The standard takes so long when the fields are big and the hyper turbo just feels like an all in shove fest from the start.

Def. Hyper!

I am most often time restricted so HT's are easiest for me. Turbo SNG's work well also.

Normal or turbo at most
Already hyper-turbo becomes more roulette than poker where chance is fundamental

I like 12-6 minute blinds but anything more is slow af and anything less is just straight up bingo. So I guess normal and turbo.

I don't have preference only a preference with the oponits.
I hate the ones that just constantly go all in and just want to try and get lucky from the start.....(ya don't usually learn playing that way).

I personally like hyper turbos best because players tend to make more mistakes with marginal hands.

I enjoy Normal and Turbo\Hypers depending on the length of the grind session.

I prefer regular poker as it is more like a live game.

I like hyper-turbo tournaments, but this is such nonsense. :rolleyes: So there is no particular preference.

Hard to believe anyone would prefer Hyper-Turbo---just seems like a revenue generator for the sites---but I guess if you are really strapped for time or just like the fold-shove game there's that!

Hyper's get into push/fold so quickly that I don't enjoy them. You often have to win a lot more flips since it is 95% preflop and you have to play far more marginal hands as if they were the nuts.

Turbo's are perfect for me - they end in a reasonable amount of time and you can 'play poker' for most of the tournament.

Normal tournaments - are extremely time consuming - also I'm probably not as good at deep stacks > 100BB, my skill is mostly in the 30-70BB stacks.

So for me turbo is the preferred format.
