I was going to put in a full day of these, but I started 1-5 and said forget it. I seriously run so bad in these all the time and still over 60% in 256 of them.

I think im giving up on the $5 ones after a rough session of playing too many at once today...they are killing my cash game play (my ft br) and they just arent that fun at the $5 level. So I think what Im gonna do is just play the usual 4 cash game tables and then throw in 1 $10 turbo in the back. Hopefully ill be able to build back my PS br that way...Played 4 of them today and won 3 of 4 so it was a solid start...should won the one that I lost as well but I was the unlucky one as every other short stack won their conflips as my stack dwindled...but it happens...the only problem is my little vacation is over...so back to work tomorrow ...couple that with studying for the cpa exam for some time when I get home = loooower volume...haha gg me

For some reason I feel like playing a bunch of the 10.40 turbos.... Ill update as it goes2-2; Last one finished with a hand that LB was just talking about. All 6 of us were very close and then two went allin AJ v TT, TT won. AJ get crippled, allin in the SB. 5 total to the flop with comes 943. And the Dumbass BB just leads out for like 750. I dont care that he had 43, I dont care if he 99. Its retarded.sigh, 2-3. first have 99<AA on ATxT9 board. Then i shove 800 OTB with AQo. BB calls off 2/3 of his stack with KQ and gets there. Deep in a $4.40, so im gonna concentrate on that now. All i need is 2nd to be even for the day....

I'd be inclinded to raise him back and put him all in. But I have a feeling I'm a touch too aggressive in these things as they wind down.Blinds are 150/300 and you'll still have 1600 if you lose. I think it's worth the shot. His range of hands is enormous and there's only two hands he could have that you're truly crushed by.The problem i find, if you pass here, all of a sudden he picks up a 660 pot uncontested and he's a threat again.

That's exactly what I did... he ended up having 77 and won the coinflip. My thinking was almost exactly like yours. I saw he was a shortstack, so I thought he shouldn't be allowed to get away from that for free. I was in 2nd position and hand just payed the blinds so felt good and rich enough to do it.But afterwards I felt it wasn't such a smart move... sure he was shortstack but there were several players that were near his stack.... sure I was a bigstack, but I wasn't that big that i could afford losing half my stack and still being comftable. Blinds were already 300 that's already fairly high and that means that almost everyone below 2k was pretty short and needed to start taking risks to try to stay out the big danger zone. I could let that happen with my stack as big as it was and chance was big that two guys would get killed before I got short. Then again i'm overanalysing it most likely since I ended up finishing 6th, if I won the coinflip I would have never given the hand a second thought :PToday I played 3 times 6 5.2$ turbo's to restore my 40$ loss from sunday tournaments ;-) It worked very well I won 13 of 18 or 72% (= 36.4$ profit)My total stat on the 5.2$'s is now 93/151 (61.6%)

I tried some of these for fun, starting with the wussy $1.10 turbos just to see what they were like. You need 6 out of ten to break even, and I was 6 out of 8 and then whiffed my last two to break even. Who blows two free rolls like me? The next to last breaker hand for the last one was amusing:http://www.pokerhand.org/?3533799Doh!Has anyone spread the $1 up to $10? Is $10 just as silly as the $1 ones?Ray
