I have been studying the MTT games in an exploitive point of view and there is a ton of skill. I have found that the average player has their thoughts playing poker is a bit backward thinking.

Most poker players come in and think about their cards. That is it. They look at their cards and they just bet their standard bet, right? The flop comes and either you hit or you don't. More times than not, you don't so you cbet. Then here is where it gets sticky. The guy folds sometimes, the guy calls sometimes or he ewe 3bets. Then it puts us in the spot. This is a typical session for most players, right?

Well let's think about position. Don't be the above guy. Be the guy in position. Be the one who applies pressure to the guy betting out of position.

Does it matter what cards you have? Well. It shouldn't be your priority. It should be this. The guy that placed the bet. Does he limp too much? Does he play hands too much? Does he open fold a lot?

Now where is the focus? On those two cards? No it's your position.

Position is first thing you should think about, second thing is your opponents play. Is he aggressive is he passive? Is he table captain? What is going on with this opponent? Does he limp in a lot?

Then you look at your cards and your stack. Your chips are your bullets. Your cards are simply the gun powder. We give too much credit on the cards. Yes they are important. They aren't going to win your tournaments. The only time those two cards win the tournament is the final showdown heads up to win. Those are the only time the two cards in fact matter.
