$5 DoN turbo and Reg on Stars

 This is my first post here. Woop!


Anywho, I just recently got back into online poker and I'm trying to figure out these $5 turbo and regular 10man sit and gos. So far, I've played a few and turned a $25 profit but I am still figuring out a general strategy. I know these have to be very, very profitable for some here on Poker Discussion.


Help me out! Whats a useful strategy with these DoN's?


Thanks a mil!

 Simply put, it's satellite strategy.  Having the most chips is nice, but you can have 5 chips and if you get 5th place, you win.

If you have a bunch of chips when there are 8-6 players left, you could attack the shortstacks, but I leave it to the midstacks to do that, because an all-in will hurt them more than they'll hurt you.
