crazy variance filled session.
Won a couple of pots and then this succession of positions, all with crap hands and raises out front when in position,
SB
SB
BB
SB
UTG
SB
UTG+2
CO (3/5off, re-raise out front)
SB
Sb
SB
BB
SB
BB
BB
UTG

I know placement is random and anomalies happen but come on, this is outside any acceptable standard deviation path.

Then get sucked out when QQ runs into AJ on a J34 9 A board. Thats no biggie happens all the time. I drove it so short of shoving, nothing I could do to put the guy off the hand. only lost half a buy in.

The above was all one table, the one on my left while playing.
THEN,
AA - flop set
AA Flop straight draw, turn straight,
as that hand unwinds I get AA on the other table.
Then the first table pulls KK.

Totally expecting to get killed on at least one hand but took down 3 buy-in in a matter of 2 minutes.

Weirdest short term variance I've seen in a while. Rush is too much fun.

went back to regular NLH last night and the play was a lot more typical; the good thing about playing rush for awhile is it makes playing regular multiple tables seem like a breeze.

wow that is kind of nuts. i have to try one, but i really don't think i'd like them that much. cash is different since the blinds don't change. tournaments with escalating blinds might make it a little crazy i think.

Especially crazy since most of their examples show that these are rebuy tourneys. Wow.

Im curious to see how the blinds will work. Unlike cash, where its done by number of hands, the tourny style will be factoring in time since last blind, to prevent stalling on the bubble and punish shortstacks trying limp ITM.
