    Would you Poker guys play this game type??
    CHIP CHASER


    "In the brand-new Sit & Go format Chip Chaser you will get neither time to rest nor a chance to catch your breath. You will be put under constant pressure and are forced to step up your game right from the start. The concept: no blinds, just antes, all-in after 10 minutes! So, better not get eaten by the antes, get yourself a dominant chip lead early.

    Keep in mind: if the clock starts ticking, you better start attacking! 1,000 chips, 100 ante & only 10 minutes are left"

    This game type does not appeal to me at all. Goes completely against my type of play.

    Opinions???????

    "step your game up" this type of poker seems to do the opposite of that... pray for a premium hand and shove... or be forced to shove with garbage and hope you get lucky

    takes the skill out of the game if you ask me

      basically a super turbo, the only skill in this is figuring out which hands to shove and which to fold.

        Agree 100% with this. I don't see why anyone would play this game type at all unless of course, you want to play a really fast game. It would suit the fools that like to go all in 1st hand preflop. Never understand people that go all in preflop regardless of what hand you have.

          it very often is the right play to go all-in preflop, especially when you have 10-15 blinds. If you are under 8 big blinds it's really the only correct play.

            Sounds like a hyper turbo without the blinds. Not my thing.

              100 ante with only a 1000 stack?
              pretty much an all-in fest from the first hand

              if 10% of my stack is in the pot each hand as an ante, i would probably have to go all-in on one of the first 3 hands mathematically speaking.
              otherwise you're going to wait to double up until it only gets you back to even???

                The only type of games I play are Turbos....This doesn't sound very good though, after 10 minutes you have to go all in???? Even if you are 3 -1 chip lead over a guy you can get knocked out after 2 hands if you both have garbage and you have to go all in.
