Re: Pokerstars differences between 16,27 & 60 dollar turbos
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I have been a low buyin SNG player for about a year. For the past 2 months I've been doing the 16 dollar turbos and keeping a very good ROI and ITM. My bankroll is ready for the 27s and might soon be ready for the 60s. What I'm wondering is if someone could give some analysis on the different levels of play. What will my opponents be doing differently and what kinds of things should I be doing differently? How long should I stay with the 27s before I go to the 60s? Any kind of info is appreciated. Thanks. [/ QUOTE ] Ask your brother "UM" [/ QUOTE ] Ha ha. I did. But I like getting answers from multiple sources. Who is this? [/ QUOTE ] Who is who? Me? I'm pooh [/ QUOTE ] What is your board name on Terptown. And don't say Poohterp. Is this Mowrmowr? [/ QUOTE ] lol, i dont even know what Terptown is! Just figured you knew UMTerp is all. I play the 27s on PS. "poohterp"? I like that...

Re: Pokerstars differences between 16,27 & 60 dollar turbos
I haven't played the 16's I have played 600-700 27's I just moved to the 60's, playing less than 200 In my short time at the 60's, I DO find them noticeably tighter than the 27's. Level 6, still 6-7 handed has been common place. I don't know what the "key adjustment" is quite yet. But at a minimum, be sure to have your push-play optimized. (which one of you is the "confused1", hmmm?)

Anyway, I have played about 2000 16s and about 3000 27s lifetime (total estimate-only recently started keeping stats again). I have played 10 60s. The 27s and 15s are probably more similar than either is to the 60s. But like I said, thats just a guess. level 4 and 5 are probably easily exploitable at the 60s because everyone is so tight mid-stage. But I have yet to deploy any sort of strategy there. I have been withdrawing all profits for the last 8 months and have only recently decided to keep some profit in my account, so I am not adequetely BR'd for the 60s (I would like at least 3k, but I am very risk averse). Try a UMterp ladder approach maybe...

Re: Pokerstars differences between 16,27 & 60 dollar turbos
I played just shy of 1000 $27's over the summer and did about 550 $60's in September... but I'm still not sure I can give a good answer.
Probably the #1 difference is that you won't get as many loose allin calls. You know, the ones where you push AK utg and AT somehow calls directly on your left? That won't happen as much, sadly. There's also a lot less dead money early on I guess. However, I think later on there's more fold equity on the bubble and you can push any 2 as bigstack with more success. Basically, you'll get fewer gifts, but if you had a winning strategy before, it will probably work now too. There's a lot of nuances to the PokerStars structure in my opinion... On a side note, I'm also a UMD student at College Park [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

people will be more aggressive, better at reading you and less likely to tilt away their chips the higher you play.

[/ QUOTE ] a strong short handed, late-sng theory is a must have for higher level sngs. better players tend to be tighter early, and open up when the blinds increase to a point that would justify more aggressive play. The game becomes less about the cards youre dealt and more about knowing how players will react to different plays. oh yeah, if youre playing turbo's, winning races is crucial.

I think you were asking about moving from $16s to $27s. If you're really that apprehensive about moving up, just mix in one table at the higher limit, then another, then another as you feel comfortable. Like I told you, the difference between the $16s and $27s is very very negligible, and you're solid enough that I would think you could even show a small profit at the $60s. I wouldn't jump straight from $16s to $60s though.
