No. In fact, I'm against them because they cause us to focus on things that aren't real and that we can not change when we should be using our brain power to focus on things that we can change and that are real. Time spent on superstition is time wasted.Dmitriy_rus7 said:
I've worked with many students on triple draw. If played well, it does not rely on luck any more than other games, and less than some, though it can certainly be frustrating at times. Play strong hands, especially in early position, snow only with your worst draws that missed badly, and learn more about the game. It's quite a complicated game, and good strategy takes time to learn.mattiebumpo said:
I would spend most of it doing self analysis and study if it were just one day. If I was doing this every day, I would spend an hour or two doing analysis and study and the rest playing.Balou1982 said:
The size of the tournament shouldn't matter. Once you are heads up, you are just playing for all the extra money above second place, so it has become a "winner take all" tournament at that point. And you should play just as hard for a dollar as for a million dollars because you want to be in the habit of playing your best all the time.jose_saleh said:
From a bankroll perspective, just move up when you have enough and move down if you have to and build back up. If you can't build up enough cash to beat the next level, you aren't good enough to be playing it. From a strategy perspective, the biggest thing that holds people back is that they develop a style that beats the micros and they stop improving. Play tighter and more aggressive than you think. Stop seeing flops with weak hands, because you may be able to make a profit against really weak micro players with those hands, but you will lose money with them against stronger competition at higher levels. Play every game as if it were high stakes and the money really mattered to you.CataRouillet said:
Should be more like 25% of hands at a full table, but the percentage goes up as there are less people at the table.nighton said:
That would definitely be the 10K HORSE bracelet. We started with 30,000 chips and I only bagged 18,000 at the end of day 1. At the end of of day 2 I had a nice stack, but was not a chip leader. On day 3 I ran so good. When I bluffed they folded, when I value bet they called. I raised six hands of limit holdem in a row and won the blinds all six times.zer0c00l23 said:
Whatever you enjoy more, just play very small. $1 tournaments, or the smallest possible cash stakes until you build up much bigger.seiya1989 said:
As a basic rule, and sometimes we break this rule but not often, you should never 3 bet a hand that you plan to fold if your opponent shoves, when you have 30BB or less. Even 35BB is usually not a good spot to 3bet with weak hands. Most of the hands you listed are just a fold with a 30BB stack if someone has already raised. Save those chips to use them in a better spot.Fepitaph said:
