I need someone to give me some tips for turbo or super turbo tournaments, and also to tell me how to raise a lot of chips in the early game.

I am not good at it myself, but if you feel like getting premium hands often from the start you should mix it with some bluffs for sure.

Sure! Turbo and super turbo tournaments move fast, so here are a few tips that help me:

1. Play tighter at the beginning, but be aggressive with strong hands — there’s no time to wait forever.
2. Steal blinds early, especially from late position. Every chip matters more in fast structures.
3. Don’t limp — raise or fold. You want to build your stack, not invite multiway pots.
4. Avoid marginal spots early on — save your chips for spots where you have a clear edge.
5. Pay attention to stack sizes — push/fold decisions come quicker, and knowing ICM pressure helps.

To build chips early, I focus on playing hands that flop well (like suited connectors or small pairs in position), and if I hit the board hard, I go for max value right away. No slowplaying in fast games — time is not on your side!

Raising a lot of chips from thd start also comes to me without plan, so no tips there I suppose.

From what I've seen - don't play them without a strict formula committed to memory. You want to play against the amateurs, not the regulars because the latter will be following the same formula, and that's a no-win scenario. You'll also need a big bankroll, again with a strict formula for managing it.

So the question really is how to find the games packed with amateurs.

Believe it or not, brother, I am the champion of satellites and freerolls, unfortunately that is my misfortune:cautious:, I play everything but ALL THE TOURNAMENTS because of everything I play, I generally always start well and the river destroys me in each game. When I win the entry, I always lose it, I try to double up at the beginning and wait for another hand to then get to the cashout.

What surprises me most is that there are players who raise 100,000 chips in such a short time.

...play as if it were an AorF (All In or Fold) game at the beginning... towards the end, if possible, play with more strategy...

In such tournaments, it is better not to bluff, at least in the early stages. Don't play with junk. Assess your opponents and their stack size. Use your position.

Try hard to find spots to play hands. Look for things like villans that fold to cbets too much, who you can steal from, good squeeze spots, etc.

Practice the icm. Review your hands with an icm tool after every game and use quiz mode to test yourself.

It's basically bingo, honestly. But to get good at turbos you need to master short stack and microstack play perfectly, because you will be a shortie around 90% of the time there. The other 10% you will be around 2 minutes away from becoming a shortie.

Most importantly, you need to play tight, and be more aggressive with your big hands. Don't limp too often, coz you're inviting for trouble going multi way

No slow play
Play late position agressively
Avoid getting involved in hands with many players, especially at the begining

1. Learn short stacked push-fold ranges, because they will matter a lot in fast tournaments.
2. Adjust to the ante, if its larger than usual, which it is on some sites.

just wait for a medium strength hand and go all-in. And of course, don't forget to do the same with premium hands
