Speed Tourney on PP
Just got knocked out of the $20+ $2 speed tourney on PP. If you are not familiar, the blinds go up every 3 minutes. Has anyone played these before? I have played 6 or 7 of them and the hands are always amazing. There was a pocket pair on at least 50% of the hands. Inevitably, someone goes all in with a middle pair (6-9) and someone calls with AK/AQ/AJ. I don't know if it is just me, but there seems to be at least two hands in each deal that are legitimate all-in hands. Regular tourneys are not that way. Maybe it is just that players know that the blinds are going up so fast, they have to make a stand or get blinded out. I finished 75 out of 310. In the 40 minutes of hands, there was KK at least 5 times, AA 3 times and a many, many low pairs and AK/AQ/AJ/A10. Just on the table I was at. The bet to me put me all-in and I had pocket Q's. Of course the guy who went all in AK and hit the Ace. Seems to be too many good starting hands. Maybe I am just delusional.
