I actually watched one of these speed tourneys with 1500 entries paying $30 each. It seems to me to be exactly what you called it - a lottery! At one point the BB was larger than the average stack and the chip leader had only 2xBB. Why would anyone play in one of these? Doesn't seem like strategy exists for such a crapshoot!

if you have a stack like i did, for a while iwas the only person over the bb, and i was attacking semi large stacks that were all in on their blinds. but thats about as much strategy is you will find.

I don't get how you can attack someone who is all-in!

Not quite what you're talking about, but a good way to do something like this with a big stack: Wait for an SB with a big stack who 'only' has half his stack in the pot and a very SS'd BB, then go all in with any two if it's folded to you.

Chances are the SB won't call it, and you're guaranteed a side pot that's 3x the main pot.
