Hey Ryan!
So recently I've started to defend almost 100% of my BB. At least on heads up pots. And it's been working surprisingly well.
But still I don't have a standard flatting/3betting range vs positional opens & considering stack depth etc.
What's your take on this & any ranges/ guides/articles you could point me into??

Generally vs opens (when not in blinds) you want to use strong suited hands or pairs as calls (89s,T9s,J9s+,QTs+,KTs+,A9s+), and weak suited hands and off suit broadways as occasional 3b (45s,56s,67s,78s,A2-A5s,KJo+,ATo+).Alucard said:
These should shift a lot based on whos opening and stack depth though.
i will be playing in a multi day event in april. My question is in regards to which day 1 flight to enter. My initial thought is to enter the last day 1, saturday, so that if i advance i can continue where i left off the very next day, and stay in the zone, so to speak. I also think there may be a few more recreation type players in saturday's day 1, since it is a saturday.
thoughts on the subject? thank you

Tourney hands
When I'm playing in tournaments it seems that there are a lot of players going all in early and it causes me to hold potentially winning hands. What I need to know is when should I consider calling this "all-ins" when I'm facing an early out in these tournaments?

It supposed that you ask Protential,but if it is allowed i would say my opinion about your question(if i am wrong,Protential can correct me as well)🙂Datdude1 said:
From my experience at micro stakes tournaments,there are some players who shove like maniacs even at early stage of a tournament..So in case i have info through hands that this player looks maniac(opens-raises all hands,shove very often/call every raise etc) i use to call their shoves if noone else is in hand with a range of 10s+,AQo+..Ofc sometimes they will have strong hands,but very often you will see them doing it with low pocket pairs,ofsuit Ax+,some K9-KTs,QJs,KJo+ etc..there are few players that literally doing it with any 2,burning their money but there is other situation..For me most important is to have information about what kind of player is and then adjust to it 🙂

Hi I got told you may be able to tell me whether I’m correct with this thanks So am I right in thinking I use the cards in my hand and on the on the felt aswell as well as the chips in the pot to calculate what percentage of the pot is mine which would give me pot equity
Eg I’m dealt AA I’d have about 85 percent chance of winning before the flop so I raise to 1000 and someone calls with JJ and the flop came 2 7 8 id have about 90% chance of winning which would give me a pot equity of 1800 chips
Can anyone confirm whether I’m on the right lines with this as if I am I’ll start diving even deeper into it thanks

I am curious if you find it easier to play higher stakes tournaments , say $50 rather than low stakes, say $12 and below.
It is frustrating playing the small stakes games between the constant all-in and bad but obviously sometimes lucky play
Just curious, forgetting bankroll for a moment
Which do you find easier. Easier is not the correct word but I think you may understand
Thanks

Hi. I play cash games but I don't know how to play tournaments, they last a long time and after one unsuccessful hand you can finish the game without a penny after several hours of play. Advise me please, how to start getting used to tournament poker? There are any methods?
Any advice heading into the Colossus Event #7 with the Cardchat members? I noticed a lot of us are playing the Monday morning flight. It would be fantastic if we all drew the same table. 🙂 Sometimes while playing live my emotions run high. I get very fired up when making a great read or lay down. Does yelling or jumping out of your chair while fist pumping motivate you to propel to the Final Table? I remember Khan while on wsop coverage a few years back. He jumped around like a monkey while screaming after every hand. Hess last year in his colorful outfit and upfront personality landed him a Final Table. Can you win more with intimidation or with math?
