What do you prefer to play online, tournaments that end faster or that take longer and more relaxed to play

Normal to turbo only, hyper is too fast to be real and slow is too tiring

Hypers are fine, the only problem is that you can really get owned by RNG there and get drained of chips just because you didn't get an openable hand soon enough. You are also usually a shortstack there, though it can be a positive for some, depending on your preferences.

I prefer faster tournaments, I'm tired of playing tournaments for long hours. End up losing because of tiredness!

I prefer slower tournaments, it's true that they can take more hours of play, but I like it better this way, without much stress and pressure, but apart from the tournaments, I used to like the hyper turbo sit and gos, despite feeling a lot of pressure, it's better than in tournaments.

Personally, I prefer the longer, slower tournaments.


They give me more time to make better decisions and take advantage of postflop spots.


But I do mix in some faster turbos or hypers when I don’t have much time — they’re great for practicing short-stack play.





How about you — do you find you perform better in faster structures or deeper ones?

I prefer the regular tournament format, but I can also play turbo, although it's a different game.
