Hi All,
A friend of mine has just started playing on Skypoker and is playing a few of the Turbo DYM's. He is relatively new to poker in general, not just Sky.
I watched him play on-line a bit last night and he is making a few newbie mistakes like limping in when only have around 7 BB's and generally just playing too many hands. However, I just wondered if anyone had any good advice on these Turbo DYM's as I don't play them. Looking at the structure (2 minute blinds, 1000 starting stack) I was going to suggest playing very tight for the first 3 levels and then open range up a bit. Also tell him to stop the limping and to be aware of others stack sizes, he was still playing hands when 1 player was down to 1.5 BB's and due in the BB next on the bubble for example.
One concern I have is that the rake seems very high on these, it is 15%. So a few questions I have are:
1.) What is a good solid strategy for the different stages?
2.) BRM - I think these type of games will be very swingy, but how many BI's do you suggest?
3.) Is the rake beatable and what would be a good ROI over a couple of hundred games? (He won 8 out of 10 at one point so he thought that was sustanable - I think not!).
Thanks for any help.
Greg.
