I usually like to get in right from the beginning of tournaments with late registration. I also tend to avoid tournaments with crazy late registration. ACR has a decent number with 3 hours of late registration, which is a bit insane in my opinion.
I think the later you start, the more you have to gamble to get your chips up to par. If I start with a stack of 25 bbs or more, I will enter then. Any lower and you're gonna be putting all your chips in preflop to play your hands. So my advice is to look at the blind level before you commit to a late registration.
I also noticed this feature on the ACR. Tournaments have a structure with a long late registration and many players enter before it ends. I find this strategy acceptable if the chances of getting ITM are high, but I prefer to play from beginning.
If its a freeroll I might late reg last minute and look to double up or just have some fun. But in a real buy-in if I'm not playing from the start I'd late reg if I had a chip stack of at least 25 BB to work with. That way I wouldn't have to jam my first premium and I can try to build my chip count normally.
Normally I do not register late. It means you miss the advantage of the BB being low and you can just wait to play the hand you want to play in early stage , watch other players. When it is a hyper turbo I do use late registration because the push/fold structure. But most of the times these are freerolls.
Late Registration
Well in my opinion the late registration must be avoided is much more profitable to play a tournament going into him at the beginning
But with many tables in play entering late registrations help in volume so games strategy when it comes for example with 10 BB's should be desisitir hands like suited connectors and broadways and play aggressively with A strong, with 66 pairs onwards should be focused on playing double to get a healthy stack so that the game comes back competitive but usually the late registration in turbo tournaments are very Oh hard to play and the trend is getting short much of the tournament.

depends on the MTTs for the KO you try to enter the tournament because they enter at the beginning just want to know of K.o and that's where you win their chips and guarantees the itm. now when and another tournament is already in 1 hour after the tournament starts and this is the strategy that I do!
Well we should avoid seeing many hands to play in position and use the push fold strategy and also use the maximum time bank is not good to enter late because we are too short and forced to play all in or fold or we lose the gameplay completely
In the case of this option I see no other way to be efficient than using this strategy that I described

I don’t know if other people have mentioned this but although you start with less BBs you make more money. If you max late reg you are probably already through 1/3 of the field. This means if you double up a couple of times and win some pots you can probably cash as your stack doesn’t have time to be blinded down.
If you late reg and you bust in 10 mins then you bust immediately you are better off than the player who also just busted but had to play for 1.5 hours before.
There is also a higher ICM for you. When you late reg for lets say a $10 tournament and out of a field of 100 players, there are now 25. Your starting stack of 100 chips at the very start was worth $10 but now as the 75% for the field is gone your stack is worth $40 instead of $10, even though you don’t have 3 times starting stack.

But when you late reg, your ICM is much higher. When you bust after 20 mins it is much better than if you bust after 90 mins
