Hi everyone,
I’ve been playing tournament poker for a while now (mostly micro to mid-stakes, live and online), and I’ve spent a lot of time recently reviewing hands — both my own and other players’.
One thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of newer players are actually doing a lot right, but are losing chips in a few key spots without realizing it. Usually things like:
- Playing too many hands out of position
- Not adjusting during the bubble
- Uncertainty in short stack (10–20bb) situations
- Overvaluing medium-strength hands
The good news is those leaks are very fixable, and small adjustments can make a big difference in tournament results.
Just thought I’d contribute and help out where I can. I love analyzing and breaking down my own hands as well as hands that people show me.
If you’re new to tournaments or feel stuck at the same level:
- Post a hand you’re unsure about
- Or describe a spot you struggle with (bubble, final table, etc.)
I’ll do my best to break it down in a simple way that actually applies to your stakes.
Looking forward to seeing some hands 👍
