Thank you! At which stack depth would you say shoving would have been a mistake?
If being deeper, would you still 3bet, or just call?

I agree, that there are too many A2s in his range to make this shove profitable.
He had a set of fours.

Is there a very different approach in terms of strategy i have to be aware of when switching from MTT to 180 SNG? I mean is the general approach still to play relatively tight in the early stage and not risk too many chips with marginal hands and get the aggression up as blinds and antes are going up?

Okay, thank you very much for your opinion, i appreciate it.

Thank you very much for answering! Would you still say that micro turbo MTTs are beatable?

Oct. 6, 2015 | 12:44 p.m.

Hi guys,

i was wondering if i can expect a much higher variance when playing turbo MTTs compared to regualar speed MTTs?
For me it feels like turbo MTTs, especially in micro stakes ($1-$2), are very tough to beat, given that in the very early stages of an MTT it makes sense to play very tight aggressive and losen up, as the weakest players are already out and blinds/antes start to go up. But as soon as one happens to be card dead for a couple of hands, it's just push/fold poker very quickly and one is conftonted with flip situations almost every round.

Would you recommend to play another format than turbo MTT (with $130 BR) because variance is too high?

Thank you very much,
Alienbash
