Hi guys,
tonight I will play the Turbo "Deuces Wild" poker tournament in Barcelona Casino.
How do you think I should adapt my NL play to this game?
As it is a Turbo tournament, with which hands is more preferable going Allin preflop?
Thanks to everyone!

This tournament will also be at EPT London, so after having played it, any advice or anything for others who might play it there?

Hi Hero,
I just followed the only advices that I found on the net, that was a good article of Chad Holloway: http://learn.pokernews.com/poker-str...-vien-3651.htm (Thank you Chad ).

After playing, my advices are:
-Just play with the 2 in your hand. You can play without it just when really short and you are in late position (Btn or SB) with good fold equity if you shove.
-It's a turbo, so with 2-7 or 2-9 or 2-K...don't fold preflop nothing of those...I did it just once after a shove and reshove.
-The first stages are really good, almost nobody knows how to play, so you will have an edge to all those players that overplays their without-2-hands
-Because of that, it's also A LOT of fun.
-Take care (Really) on the river after a showdown. Don't trust the dealer (he's also not used to this) so when he's mucking your hand just ask him for a few seconds more to double check the board and your hand...I saw 2 or 3 times that a dealer was giving the winning hand to the wrong player.

I hope this can help you and other players who read this
Let me know how it will go.

Dear Neil, thanks for the congratulations...but I just wanted the Spades trophy :P
I played other events, yes. But I cashed just on that one :S
But really an impressive poker festival here in Barcelona!! Congrats to you and to the Barcelona team!

Saludos,
Gabriele
