i"ve played it a few times and last sunday had my best result in it. 200th out of 17000.
It is actually listed in poker player magazines top turbo tourneys. It recognises that with 10 minute levels, it isn"t a proper turbo but the large field tends to make the decisions similar to the ones in a turbo.
I agree with you on it being a duckshoot but you can play properly to get in the money (3000 get paid normally). How much you get depends on a lot of luck. As for pushing all the time.... well the structure determines this strategy. The average stack after the money bubble is normally 12 - 15 BBs (or an M ratio of 6-7) so all in is the only move for most players. (Although UTG with 83s is not the best spot - maybe the blinds were about to go up?)
I do find the tourney fun but the real frustrating part is the stalling around the various bubble marks. You do get alot of people who are happy to let themselves get whittled down to 2 BBs and use alll their timebank in the hope of just creeping into the money and winning $18 in return for their $11 investment. This does slow the game down and probably contributes to the low BB average stack
I believe BSQ run $11 deepstack tourneys twice every fortnight. The standard of play is really good, even if the money rewards are not the greatest time investment. ;D

Came 66th this Sunday just gone- it is a shove fest but if you know what you"re doing and can assess people"s ranges you can go quite deep.
its like playing 1 long turbo sit and go.
