I've been playing a lot of STT home games lately.
I've been winning the majority of them, but I'm not a consistent winner.
I think the biggest problem is that these games are often played with a warped blind structure; the blinds are increasing too fast.
Does anyone have any know how to play in these games?
(the worst game I've been playing was: 8 players, 20 chips(yes, only 20), blind 1-2 doubling every time a player lost)
Another big problem is that the game is often won in one hand. At some point all the players decides to put all of there chips in to the middle, 2 or 3 players go allin and the rest keep pushing! This type of game is of cause a blessing in money game, but in STTs it will give one player an extreme(unbeatable) chiplead.
How do you avoid, cope with or take advantage of this phenomenon?
