My BASIC guide to beating each level ($30/50/100/200\'s)
30+3:
1) Stay tight
2) If under 10BB, push/steal to survive if it's +EV (ie: use ICM).
3) Do not get fancy: No pvs, no impetus, no stop n go, etc. They will call.
50+5:
Same, except use fancy plays (albeit sparingly). Also, need some ability to play post flop, since you start off with 25% more chips than 30+3.
100+9:
- Same as 50+5, but also need reads, and recognize situations where there free chips for you to scoop up.
- Blinds also call min raises and 2.5BB raises alot more.
200+15:
Play like Gigabet=> Fancy plays galore. It's not what cards you have, it's what you're representing. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Any other generalizations?
