I much prefer to play poker and try to implement my game. But sometimes you have to adapt, early in tournaments people just go crazy with all sorts of rags and just push any ace, mid pair. I'm a big believer that tourneys are not sprints, they are marathons, you won't win one within the first hour. Patience is much more important.

If I sit down to play poker then patience and discipline come first. Patience allows you to get rid of cards exactly when the loss is minimal, that is, you need to be able to lose with minimal losses. You shouldn't hold weak cards until the river, it's not patience, it's stupidity, and such misses are usually punished.

If I have a small stack I am inclined to push all-in more often.
If I have a big stack and a premium hand, I try to get as many chips from my opponents as possible with medium raises.

Patience is the key to good results in the long run. I'm always patient and that's why my bankroll is growing. I don't play bingo, and I don't see the point in such a game.

Depends on when and against whom.

If you have a lot of bb then going all-in with a bad or marginal hand doesn't make any sense!!! Most of the time I am a disciplined player although sometimes I make mistakes!!!

Я думаю, что это в первую очередь зависит от размера стека. Если стек небольшой, а до бабла еще далеко, олл-ин даже обязателен, вне зависимости от карт. При среднем стеке лишние действия вообще не имеют смысла. Будучи чип-лидером за столом, вы можете пойти ва-банк, чтобы напугать своих оппонентов, особенно на баббле, и взять дополнительный блайнд.

It all depends on the stack. If the stack is short, then there is no time to wait for a good hand, you need to go with a more or less playable hand, but if the stack is large, then there is time and wait for a little good hand. But not always a good hand preflop can be winning postflop. Therefore, the main thing is to find a golden mean and not tilt.

Depends on the moment... but if you are really short stack, you'll have to go all in with more hands than usual.

poker is a game of patience and taking advantage of the weakness of other players. There will be times when you go all in with a premium hand and lose, other times you might try to steal a pot and get caught by premium cards but win the hand. Luck influences so everything has its time. If you start playing bingo I don't think you'll last long in the tournament

It depends on the position and how much is the pot since going all in in UTG I do not consider a good move since the high pockets will almost always pay us

I only go all-in if i need to double my stack or steal blinds, and i will calculate the hand needed to play a wide all-in even if it's not a good position for me, sometimes you really need to do it otherwise you will blind out and if you have 1bb left and then get a decent hand it's really no use cause you might go card-dead after winning that small pot

I think it depends of the moment of the tournament. If I'm short stack, it usually means both, I wait for a good hand and go all in.

Everything will depend on the tournament I'm playing, if it's a super turbo tournament, I won't be waiting for good hands, I have to go all-in otherwise I'll be short in chips very quickly, but when the tournament is slower, I can wait good hands. Good luck to everyone at the tables.:)

Nothing is etch in stone in Poker, because luck is such a big part of it.. Truthfully you do both…
