Default Re: Early play in STT\'s

I completely agree that turbos are very different from normal STT's. Should the rapidly increasing blinds induce you to play more pots because you will soon be short staced or should you want to save those chips for the doubble up your going to need soon?

You're not supposed to ask me questions like this when I'm acting smart.

Gernerally I would play tighter in the early rounds and let everyone else fight for a few rounds.

When you have more chips, and more time to work, you can play more hands, and if you lose one or two (not for your whole stack), you have more time to find a hand to come back with. When the stacks are short, you need to be getting in with the best hands and making your money there.
