Tournaments

[Rumengh]

Hello from me and I am new to the forum and will be happy to tell you which type of tournament is the most profitable in the sense of blind level that is long or not.:captain::captain::captain:

Depends on your play style really.

Short blinds mean you have to be super aggressive, longer blinds play a bit more like cash games.

Short blinds are high variance, if you dont get good cards early or you are basically going to have to play a push / fold strategy, i think if your game is fundamentally sound in the long term both are profitable, but long blinds will be better in the short term and easier on the bankroll

The longer the blinds in a tournament, the more hands can be played before the stack becomes dangerously short. This allows you to play a reliable, confident style while playing your best hands. :icon_cat:

At the table with short blind you do not have time to wait, and very soon are forced to play with any suitable hand. And the same will be done by other players. Therefore, in the bank there are several villains at once and the game turns into a lottery with any cards.

It depends from your game type, or from your appetite each time you play. If you want to be more aggresive you can choose a fast blinds changing mtts, like the "hot" at pokerstars. If you want to play in a calmer way you can chooze something like the "big" at pokerstars. The buy in depends from your bankroll, and it is good to be the 1/20-1/30 of your bankroll.

If you pick tournaments with long blinds then you'll fall asleep, there is not much action.. at least not for me.

In tournaments where blindsgo up slow it's easier to play normal poker. Where fast blinds you could early play push/fold poker. Game starts to be like roulette.

I prefer my blinds to go up every 10 mins, if its every 5 mins you have to losen your range which affects your profits at the lower stakes, as you must rely on more coin flip scenarios a lot sooner then needed, this leads to a lot more times getting knocked out early, but at 10 minute blinds you can play safer and wait for good opportunitys

yeah i been away for sometime now but im back and ready to play .

 

[Drhat63]

totally depends on your style of play, RAM and JAM, short blinds probably are best. if you are looking to play deeper pots, with more moves available, then you'd want longer blind levels. very personal choice, IMHO.

Depends on your play style and what you are best at

 

[ayahuasca]

Short blinds are more like lottery with hysterical all-ins to defend your bankroll, I don't like them. So I'd recommend long ones if you're going to build good bankroll without a ton of risk.

The longer are the blinds in the tournament, the more hands can be played before the stack to become dangerously short. This allows you to play reliable, confident style while playing your best hands. :icon_cat:

On the table short blind you do not have time to wait and soon you are forced to play with any appropriate hand. The same will be done by other players. Therefore, the bank has several villains simultaneously and the game turns into a lottery with all cards.

Thanks for the nice response really try to play strategic poker and found that earns more in the long levels, as indeed in short rates have to play blind and I do not I like this

Tournaments with a deep structure are less dispersive. And more suitable for bankroll.

 

[Andrei Korolev]

Turbo, blinds grow faster than normal tournaments and you need to play more hands than usual...

 

[Cloxy]

I think if turbo blinds and is not deep stack then it is just fortune. I will be able to comfortable play only if you was more lucky in earlie stage.

It depends on what you are playing better. If you have positive statistics to spin and go is the most lucrative tournament structure for you. If you play too aggressively mmt the shorter stacks the better for you. When playing style tight-agressivgy or too cautious rather deep stacks. It depends on what game style you prefer.
