You just get to see more high blind play, that's all. There are no special books for the (hyper)turbos, at least not that I know of, but as I said before the strategy is pretty much the same. Just get a regular sitngo book and focus more on improving your game when the blinds are high. Good luck!katerina289https://www.blogger.com/profile/02423604618790782063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-38399870514891314092011-04-12T02:21:40.561+01:002011-04-12T02:21:40.561+01:00Hi katerina
Congrats for your achieved PS status!...Hi katerina<br /><br />Congrats for your achieved PS status! <br /><br />What are y playing? turbo? hyper turbo? Or normal sng(no turbo) ?<br /><br />I only play normal sng´s . I feel that hyper turbos are kind of lottery...but i know im wrong<br /><br />Its hard to get a strategy when blinds increase so fast....<br /><br />i also know that ICM is the secret for hyper turbos, but its hard to find info´s,forum about that kind of tournaments.<br /><br />Do y have any tip? (book ,forum etc)<br /><br />Thanks and the best luck on the tables!<br /><br />JoaoJoao TThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10525565078902012967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-91503221130901651492011-04-07T11:06:57.389+01:002011-04-07T11:06:57.389+01:00@Joana: Thank you very very much for your nice com...@Joana: Thank you very very much for your nice comment! About the tournaments, like you said, Andre is sponsored by PokerStars, not me, so I'm free to play at whatever site I want. However, I chose to play on PokerStars for 2 reasons: first, it has the biggest traffic you can get and secondly, I have an expert to help me get full advantage of their points/promotions etc. Wouldn't want to spend much time on that now that I should be focusing on learning! Apart from all that, I think it goes for every site that the more volume you put in, the more advantages you have. I started playing on PokerStars, so at this point I would probably be losing if I moved to some other site and start playing here and there. Thanx for the suggestion though!<br /><br />@GeoKing13: Thank you for your support! I added your blog and will be expecting news from your poker life soon! Good luck!<br />P.S.: What you feel about english, I feel about portuguese... So no worries! :Pkaterina289https://www.blogger.com/profile/02423604618790782063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-9942532246342004792011-04-07T01:50:27.410+01:002011-04-07T01:50:27.410+01:00hello

Awesome work u are doing, I'm astonished to say the least...Obviously the flow of every line, every word is totally different from any other poker blog I've ever read and I mean this is the most positive way I can :)<br /><br />I wish u the best of successes on your quest!<br /><br />Just one last question, since u r striking to move up to the $6's have u considered first to play some of the super-turbos $5's at Fulltilt (u also can get some rakeback). I know that Andre is a sponsored player at Stars, but I imagine that u would find much more interesting the ST's $5's.<br /><br />best of luck<br />JoanaJoana Santoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07857475428723663669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-59974046966010231382011-04-04T14:55:31.738+01:002011-04-04T14:55:31.738+01:00@Xplicit: Interesting blog, I feel what the guy me...@Xplicit: Interesting blog, I feel what the guy means when he says what you quoted.

Good luck to you too, hope to see you at the $6.5s soon!<br /><br />@nezzi77: Thanx for the kind words! I'm glad you liked my blog!<br /><br />@JoaoFonseca: That graph is from sharkscope, not holdem manager, but I don't undertand why you would want to change tourneys into games played and dollars into total profit... No matter what the words, both graphs show the exact same thing. Anyway, I think that also covers why the colour of the line is different. Good luck to you too!<br /><br />@pokericks: It's good to hear that my blog has been an inspiration to someone, I've added your blog and I'll be looking forward to reading the adventures of another new player like me!katerina289https://www.blogger.com/profile/02423604618790782063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-35001223688614606102011-04-04T02:43:23.631+01:002011-04-04T02:43:23.631+01:00Hi katerina, i've read your blog and u encoura...Hi katerina, i've read your blog and u encourage me to create my own blog and to start from de begining in poker.<br /><br />I will post my results to.<br /><br />add my blog to your blogroll please<br /><br />http://pokericks2pro.blogspot.com/<br /><br />PS: the blog is in portuguese, hope u can understand some portuguese by nowpokerickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11508654267655291524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-36109890599242647302011-04-03T18:08:23.588+01:002011-04-03T18:08:23.588+01:00Hi Katerina.

I bet you read "...Congratulations on Goldstar!<br />I bet you read "The Poker Mindset" for tilt issues? It is a fantastic book, it was my 3rd poker book that I bought last year. It feels good to review it.<br />I think at the $6,50 you will play against better players who knows ICM and they wont call you so light when you shove on the button or on the SB.<br />Of course, you will find many players who don't have a clue about prize pool equity.<br />Best of luck in April, I still going to put more volume on the micro stakes but I hope to catch you latter this year!<br />Good luck and skill and best regarding to André!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010661411603294268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6481160529769700304.post-77511396793537941542011-04-01T19:32:40.912+01:002011-04-01T19:32:40.912+01:00Hey, guess what!

Check out this guy's entrance at his blog: http://glitlr.blogspot.com/2011/02/challenge-day-1-results.html<br />Focus on the part at which he says "I decided to stop playing micro stake games. I just couldn't take it anymore. Plus, the results should have been much better - if I didn't lose every key hand." and... "I went back to low stake games and with >100% roi on ave. stake $4 for the day, I'll take it.".<br /><br />I bet you can barely wait to move up now haha gl with your games!Xplicithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14509391645359744477noreply@blogger.com
