This a noob question.

Poker Stars $1.00+$0.20 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t15/t30 Blinds - 8 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

MP1: t1500 M = 33.33
MP2: t830 M = 18.44
CO: t950 M = 21.11
BTN: t1580 M = 35.11
SB: t1770 M = 39.33
BB: t1600 M = 35.56
Hero (UTG): t1470 M = 32.67
UTG+1: t3800 M = 84.44

Pre Flop: (t45) Hero is UTG with Q

Hero raises to t90, 6 folds, BB raises to t270, Hero raises to t1470 all in, BB calls t1200

Flop: (t2955) A

(2 players - 1 is all in)

Turn: (t2955) 3

(2 players - 1 is all in)

River: (t2955) K

(2 players - 1 is all in)

Always go all in preflop if reraised with AKo+, JJ+ at the $1. Consider this a rule.

Move up a level, the 20% rake is crippling and simply not worth it, ever, at all. People are generally as bad at higher levels. Play the $1 DoN's if you really need to get your bankroll up, those things are a joke, you can beat them just by reading the sticky.

That depends on you. Start with the non-turbos if you're new to that, but move to turbos as quickly as possible, because you'll make moar $$.

Good luck!

In general, the better you are the flatter you want the structure. I stay from Turbos for this reason.

Allways shove here, and be happy about it.

And yah, the rake in 1$ sits is huge. If you dont want to move try some DON (turbo, you can put more volume, make money faster and the rake is smaller) or 2$ HU, those are free money.
