Your results were much better than mine; great job. That said, I'd like to mention I experienced a huge learning curve during an 18 tournament downswing last week, where I learned positional bets and how to manage chip stacks in relation to blinds. This should account for much better play post lvl 3 pre ITM.

edit: I've been 4-8 tabling at all times.

Can you give me an example of playing a hand differently now that you learnt the new technique?

Let's suppose we are 5 handed and not yet ITM. The blinds are about 150/300 if I remember correctly and I have 1500 chips. Someone with 750 chips pushes and I'm holding AQs. During my early play I would have called and been calling a coinflip. Now, I won't settle for the coinflip, I'll make the bets and if it comes then so be it.

Simiarly, if I had AQs and had 2000 chips, I use to think pushing allin is correct at lvl5, but there is no need for me to risk all my chips here.

Were you looking for a more thorough response of does this provide sufficent example?

Thanks for the answers. But what I have found is that in your 1st example, the guy is often pushing with Ax so it would not be a coinflip to call but more often then not you will be a 70% fav to win the hand. And insta call if you are in the BB I hope for you...

clearly, i think your range of hands is too narrow

he's going to post almost half his stack when the blind hits him. ie- desperate

you're racing many of his pushing hands, dominating a bunch of them and trailing a few of them. i think it's a pretty clear call in that situation.

Yeah I would call the push here if no one else before me called it.

forget about a coinflip. You will have the best hand a much greater percentage of the time. With the blinds going to take 450 from him, he would push a lot more than a pockt pair.

90% of these have been 4 at a time. I don't have the time to play 500 games one at a time. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
