Ninja needs opinions on deepstack play

#1 12-03-2005, 02:23 AM

Tomorrow afternoon, I'm going to play in the $11 deepstack on PokerStars. I'm planning to be in it for the long haul. I feel deepstacks is a better situation for players like me, so what can I expect in this thing? How are the players? Should I loosen up or stay tight in the first few levels? Any opinions are wanted. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Nothing?

i play pretty tight PF. maybe a bit more stabs w/ hands that bust big hands, like PP's or suited connectors. But, just stay patient, it's a long long tournament, even if you only have the starting stack, you're in fine shape like 4 hours in

Thanks Exit. I assumed a player could make some more preflop limps with SCs 78+ or so. As always, it would depend. I'm generally VERY TAG, and I typically know when to lay a hand down. I'll update how I do as I play tomorrow.

If I played super TAG in a Deep Stack tournament, I'd be absolutely bored to tears.

Fair enough, and I'm sure at points I'll loosen up quite a bit. It should be interesting.
