Hi There,
I play in a weekly live poker tourny vs 8 opponents with a
$50 buy in. The Tourny structure is as follows...
Each player gets $1000 in chips
Blinds are-
- 0-30 mins= 5-10
- 30-60 mins= 10-25
- 60-90 mins= 25-50
- 90-110 mins= 50-100
- 110-130 mins= 75-150
- 130-150 mins= 100-200
- 150-170 mins= 150-300
- 170-185 mins= 200-400
- 185-200 mins= 250-500 (tourny is usually heads up
or over here)
Basically, I have been doing farely well in these tournies
but, I feel my main problem has been that I have been getting blinded down with a medium stack once the blinds get to the 50-100/75-150 range, and I am getting impatient and making mistakes which either cripple my stack or get my self knocked out.
Does any one have any suggestions on what a good strategy to implement under these tournament conditions would be.
btw- 1st place wins $270, 2nd place= $135 & 3rd Place wins $45.
Any feedback, any of you have would be much appreciated!
Thanks.
