^^without quoting ppl's entire posts.  i like this thread because its making me think a little bit more about playing some turbos rather than just defaulting to regular.

larry says a reg favors the patient, cautious player, which is definitely what i am *most* of the time.  but at the same time, i feel maybe i'm just a little bit patient to a fault; sometimes it pays off and sometimes i'm damn near blinding out when card dead and out of there one way or another.

pawkit aces is saying "hey dude, i see a lot of guys who play this game for a living jumping in the turbos and i'm starting to see why"  and talks about <10BB=push time rather than std raise.  which i think is entirely correct, and is something i'm completely comfortable doing with a fairly wide range of hands, escalating as my stack dwindles.  its often surprising to see how often you'll get folds all around to lt|eq to 10bb's left shove, and surprising to see what crap will call it to double you up (or get lucky)

the payoff in a sng, to me, the fun part, is near the end, where i can shove liberally with 3 ppl left.  i go back to std raises heads up with high cards (if this is wrong, let me know, it seems to work for me).  so in a turbo, we could be in shove/fold mode with 7, 6, or 5 people remaining.  sounds like fun.  i should probably try to play in some more turbos.
