i_am_the_swammi Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Nice...I think we can go if there are 4-5 minimum We played a more turbo-game for the 2nd game last week...blinds sped up to 10 minutes (versus 15)...made it go smoother and kinda forced the action a little faster. I liked it...game was over in just over an hour (versus the 2.5 hour game one). They have options for even faster 7 or 5 minute levels, too. Might be something to consider if we want to get a couple games in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say it was an isolated incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be something to consider if we want to get a couple games in. I think 10 min. for first and then maybe a speedy 5 or 7 if there are enough for a second game. Turbos are fun I play them often but with the group we have here and small potatoes in the pot I would say some come for fun and to chat. If it goes to fast and furious it may take some of that away for some IMO Edited January 20, 2012 by Sunday Couch Potatoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm not sure if there was a change in the clock for when you made a decision in that second game, but that seemed really fast too. I came in looking for some banter and laughs but there wasn't time to chat. Took some of the fun away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I think we sped-up the time to make a decision, which we can roll back to the normal 30 seconds. What sped the game up overall, though, was reducing the time of the blind levels from 15 minutes to 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
