Default Re: What Adjustments do I make for this Tourney?

When blinds are small relative to your stack, you can get away with playing more drawing hands like Axs, Kxs, small pocket pairs, suited connectors, and suited one gappers. Similarly when multiple people are in the pot ahead of you, you can get away with playing these types of hands. When blinds are higher be weary of playing these types of hands out of position.

My guess is that it's not your starting hand selection as much as it's a leak in other aspects of your game.

Are you tight-passive? If so work at being more agressive. Semi-bluff more often. Don't fold against loose aggressive players as much. Make a play for the blinds sometimes. Don't be afraid to go all in early in the tourney if you think there's a good chance you have the best hand.


What happens when you become chip leader at your table? Do you turn into a maniac or the table sheriff and quickly go back to a short stack?


Look for the leaks in your game and try to fix them. Read more books.
