Title: That was fun, but now my head is mince.
Post by: thetank on March 01, 2006, 08:19:11 PM
I just played 20 $3+$0.40 turbo sit n gos on Pokerstars simulataneously.

Got three 1sts, two 2nds and two 3rds for my trouble.

So I netted a $7 profit woohoo, more importantly another 20 sit n gos towards the 4,000.

Man those games are tough, the bubble fights are more vicious than games 35 times the buy-in. I don't envy anyone playing on a short roll. If you are, stay away from Stars is my advice.

I'm playing the $15 turbo's at the moment, still waiting for an answer to my PM from you, ya bugger.  8)

P.S Poppet is the $3 turbo master.

Sorry bout the delay Homer, have replied now.

I was just astonished at the level of play, it was quite good. Was expecting something resembling play-money, but it was pretty much the opposite.

I think I got some bad beats, but I don't really know, no time for looking at what happens after the chips go in. beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep

i find the standard pretty poor.

i used to play 8-10 of the $25 turbos simultaneously. If you can get a double up early and have about 4000 chips when down to the last 4/5 they tend to be pretty easy to win.

ideal situation uis when you have about 7/8k down to last 4, you move in every hand and they all pass, its great fun!

Tank - you have just given me hope.  I'm so glad it's not just me that's finding these tough work :D

I seem to have lost a large proportion of my account on small stt's but it's a relief to know that even the better players find them tough :)


Poppet - no joy recently?  You'll get it back - hang in there :)
