Winners Announced! ----------------------------------- Post to enter time again Crushers :) *Revised Prize Structure* Always Presented by BowerCrush _______________________________ TOURNAMENT VARIANTS PART 2 Turbo Tournaments A turbo or speed tournament is one where the blinds rise very quickly. Often, the blinds will escalate every 5 minutes. In fact, it is not unheard of to have the blinds increase every two minutes! These types of tournament have a higher luck factor than typical tournaments. There is very little postflop play because people tend to be forced to go all-in preflop or fold. For this type of tournament, aggression is important. The blinds will quickly eat away your stack if you play passively. Turbo's are not a good fit for everyone. In Conclusion: Steal the blinds a lot and hope like hell luck is on your side.....

I like to gradually get into agressive play ----------------------------------- crzynana2001 06.03.2012, 18:27 ----------------------------------- I love the turbos, but have learned to play thenm in free tourneys...lol ----------------------------------- shirlsplay 07.03.2012, 21:21 ----------------------------------- OMG!!! thank you for telling me what turbo is. Am going to make sure i play turbo cause the other ones take to long. I love paying poker but hate it when they last 4 or 5 hours to complete. Turbo should cut the time. ----------------------------------- valeria 13.03.2012, 23:02 ----------------------------------- I find that turbo's are a great way to throw away money for me.. LOL I don't play them. I like the slow painful death than fast and quick in Poker. Turbo's are kind of like Wham! Bam! Thank you Ma'am poker and leave me feeling incomplete... ROFL ----------------------------------- josie46 14.03.2012, 14:13 ----------------------------------- hi dont like turbo , its like puter took over , lolty josie46 ----------------------------------- CATLICKER 14.03.2012, 15:39 ----------------------------------- Its funny, but I agree with every one of the posts so far. Would seem to be good fit for novice players, without the patience and/or time involved in playing "traditional" poker tournaments. Never had great results in turbo tourneys myself. Dramatically increases the luck/skill ratio. ----------------------------------- transam99 17.03.2012, 15:29 ----------------------------------- Sometimes I play turbos but as a general rule I do not. I consider them more luck playing the lottery LOL ----------------------------------- ojisplayin 21.03.2012, 03:55 ----------------------------------- OMG!!! thank you for telling me what turbo is. Am going to make sure i play turbo cause the other ones take to long. I love paying poker but hate it when they last 4 or 5 hours to complete. Turbo should cut the time. And I will put in my 2 cents here and 100% TOTALLY agree with you Shirl :) I love to be in and out (win or lose) in under an hour EVERY time I can!! Everyone has some well thought out answers, so Archie?

I think it seperates the mice from the men. You have to always have some luck on your side. It makes all the differenc! ----------------------------------- Bower50 28.03.2012, 22:46 ----------------------------------- 300 PC points each sounds great to me Patti.I personally like turbos once in a while,like an hour before bedtime.LOL!!! ----------------------------------- gjr1961 29.03.2012, 08:02 ----------------------------------- To be honest, I didn't know anything about turbo tournaments. I don't think that I would like to go fast because so much of the time my mind doesn't work that way. It seems to prefer part time work at a slower pace. ----------------------------------- broxi 01.04.2012, 20:37 ----------------------------------- okay im different from most, if i was going to play tournaments then turbo suits me more, as everyone knows i lose interest in normal tournaments as they can be boring and last way too long, i find turbos are more exciting tho and like bower says the blinds rise so quick that the games more interesting, no sitting for ages just seeing everyone folding all time, and as bower says luck plays more of a part in it so id rather lose quickly by getting bad cards or win quicker by getting good cards, some of the normal tournaments you find you can get dealt good cards 5 hands in a row with no way to play them as everyone folds but with turbo you got a better chance of making good cards count ----------------------------------- ojisplayin 03.04.2012, 05:51 ----------------------------------- TY CRUSHERS, I HOPE YOU ALL GET AS MUCH FROM THESE AWESOME BITS OF "GOOD POKER SENSE" AS I DO!!
