Hi everyone,

So my question is, if I should somehow adjust my preflop ranges or the overall strategy when playing a Turbo SnG (2-5 minute levels)? For example, should I play looser or increase bet/raise sizes compared to normal (7-10 minute levels) SnGs? The problem is that in Turbos after playing a few hands the late stage with push/folds starts and most of the time I'm left against maniacish double stacks.

your strategy should be similar.

you can steal the BTN/SB wider to pick up some small pots. Play solid TAG poker until the 10BB range. then make sure you study your ICM push/fold ranges. gl

Some guys do this even at 30s

I find positional play is very important in turbo's. Also the first 6/10 hands will give you a basic read on table dynamics for each sng. So you can adjust your ranges.

So far I've played tight and aggressive, and much loser from button and have every single game :-) (though on 1$ tournaments). Also it's crucial to call extremely tight and push tight against deep stacks on bubble.
