Field differences between normal and turbo HU

Hey guys...

I've been thinking... Is there any differences between the players that plays the non-turbos and the turbos SNG HU?

At the low stakes, probably

At the low stakes, probably not. For the nosebleed stuff I probably get something like 10% of the games in non-turbos that I do in turbos. While coming up in stakes I think it is really just preference, but in the grand scheme of things it will be optimal for you to be able to play them both.

I'm saying that you should

I'm saying that you should play whereever the fish are. I don't think it matters which one you play while moving up through low stakes, but as you get to high stakes you are going to want to follow the fish whereever they go.

Totally misread your first

Totally misread your first post sorry lol. I read something along the lines "i do 10% of the stuff in nonturbos that i do in turbos".

Yeah that was worded kind of

Yeah that was worded kind of poorly. I meant that 90% of my games are turbos and 10% are non-turbos and that I don't really have a choice because I have to follow the fish.

I think the average "fish"

I think the average "fish" likes turbos, because he likes action. Also turbos have a higher variance and they are more dependend on luck than non turbos.

I considered once to play super turbos and to just time out 3-4 hands and shove according to nash afterwards, but that is probably insane variance. :)

Well, if you really like it

Well, if you really like it fast, you could try out the 500 chips ultra-turbos on the Cereus Network.  You start @ 50 bb and blinds increase every 2 minutes.

I don't like them very much because it's really super high variance - and I also think my edge is a lot higher before the jam-fold-phase.
