Finally!
Took down a 60 person tourney at the local casino tonight for 1100. I didn't get good cards: AK 4 times or so (shoved the majority of those), and won two races, JJ>AK and KT>77. My best pair was QQ, and I got no callers with that one.
Look out, Colorado, when I actually get good pocket pairs.
Some interesting facts about the night:
Not once did I see a turn without someone being all in.
Due to strange circumstances, I never put in a standard raise on limpers. It was always all-in.
I never paired on the flop.
I probably came close to a record for all-ins: I would guess around 20.
That sounds pretty typical for how these low-buyin turbo tourneys play. I played one at the MGM last December and I don't think I played a hand postflop after the first 30 mins. It was strictly push-fold the rest of the way. I finished 2nd.
