Has anyone tried those? I've played a couple and they didn't go well, how do you approach this structure?

I watched one running last night for a few minutes. I don't really know what to think of them, I've never played one.

I think the one good thing about them may be that no one else really knows how to play them as well as they play normal tournaments, so if you learn the best strategy for them, you may have an edge that you don't have in normal tournaments.


More steals I guesse?
Larger pots, more agressive players.
Yet I have never tried one myself

not necessarily bigger pots because the blinds stay 5/5. What I would suggest is limping a lot. it costs virtually nothing, and so its not too bad if pot gets raised and you have to fold

stealing in general in the latephase becomes more important and you need to losen up your openshipping range as a shortstack as its more profitable!
don't play a lot of these tournaments, but maybe i'm playing them in the next coaching sunday or monday
