Awesoem tips to win more at tournaments is second time I see this video and is always good to remind this tips cause when you start playing you forget them all hahahaha... the one that was more difficult for me to apply was be aggressive I guess it was fear to lose but nowadays I'm better on this hope never forget it on the tables Thanks guys!
 
Hi members,

A nice informative and succinct video here, with a healthy dose of humour.

I think it would be nice to see those tips in action at the table and invite fellow players to boom or have hand replayers to see those tips in action.

Here is one hand where I tried to play aggressively. Let me know what you guys think on this slippery board...

Tip 1 - Be Aggressive; click here
Tip 2 - Plan hand in advance

I decided to bet 3 x BB and c-bet the flop with the same amount. Then took some time to decide how aggressive to be on the turn..

Drop me a line in the comments on boom and let me know what you think.

Application is important!

Nice Video Tammy!

My favorite is always play to win... unless you are a short stack on the bubble... then play to cash 🙂
 
Interesting, I hadn't thought of it, but I usually play aggressively when I'm losing and my chips are running out.
But as I am learning I need to improve my actions.
I believe that this lesson will help me achieve better results in poker.
 
Thank you very much for this useful information.
I often use aggressive play style, if not always.
Especially 15bb tip will work very well for me.
 
Excellent tips, I have put into practice some of his advice in my last games, I am no longer so aggressive and I have concentrated on strategies that I have seen in his videos, I make mistakes like any other player, I really like his charisma in the videos, Thank you
 
I like what is said in the video, however, would like to add a few things.
1. Be aggressive - totally agree, however players should be mindful of the fact that the average player, online or live, has little knowledge of ranges and odds and stuff, which is why one should not play aggressive at all costs.

2. Good advice overall. It's a shame there aren't a lot of threads about this topic as it is, imo, among the hardest skills one can acquire in poker.

3. Again, completely agree. Also, would like to point out, that once in that <15bb range, players should be mindful of their position as well, and not make their decision solely based on the stack size.

4. Agreed, still, in micros, players are not as familiar with ICM, therefore, we can't expect them to make folds ICM-wise. That being said - don't get overaggressive, be mindful of your hand and how strong it is.

5. Completely correct. When I first started playing live MTTs, I was a cash game only player, with no real knowledge of the game. However since the field was so poor, I managed to win the first two tournaments I have ever played.
 
Important tips. Being aggressive was one of my changes last. I was very passive and saw that playing aggressively is more EV.
 
Thanks, Katie and Collin. I always try to play aggressively. I hope the rest of the tips improves my game
 
These tips should be the ABC for all players starting to play tournaments. Totally recommended.
 
What would you add to the list?

Play in position/Think about your table position
Position is vital in poker tournaments because it represent a major knowledge advantage. When you act in late position, you get to see what your opponents do before you act. You can get away with playing weaker hands in late position thanks to that advantage.
 
In modern poker, any rules and advice of experienced players do not work until 2016. All recommendations for betting in a certain place at the table according to various tables with betting rules with an certain combination of cards have lost their effect. Old books about poker don't work. Poker has become a bingo- game and this is especially noticeable on PokerStars. This is only my exclusive opinion.

Bring an orange in your pocket. If you sit next to someone that smells like cigarette smoke or smells bad for some other reason, you can break into the peel and take a few sniffs every once in a while.

I know, not a serious tip; but I actually used it once.

Tangerines. I don’t know if they grow in America. But they are smaller and more convenient in your pocket. Also a fruit from the citrus family.

And yet, now you can quite legally wear protective masks. Great life hack for poker face. And no one will mind.

Really interesting video. Thanks!
 
So on the points))
1. Aggression - sometimes a lot
2. Distribution plan - unfortunately very rarely
3. Show or fold - unfortunately very rare
4. Play loose with a big stack, and play tight with a middle one - everything is exactly the opposite
5. Play in soft fields - easier said than done
Conclusion, work on yourself and your game and work again!

Simple stuff but very effective, and it's a solid base for becoming a winning player. Good video!
 
Hello, the All CardsChat Community! I'm, of course, heard and knew these (or similar) advices,
as I think and many others... But in Poker, as in Life, main is not know something🙄, and main
correctly to use their in needing moments😎, because in Poker, by my opinion, can't to be universal advices:
every situation is unique, as well in Life! But this is only my private opinion. Good Luck Everyone! 🙂
 
The number one mistake I see tournament players make is see a player who has a chip lead or a very big stack and then just blows it off, bluffing, trying to win the tournament too early.
 
These are one of the best vídeos i have Ever seen. I really liked the #4 vídeo. Thanks for that.

I am guilty of that it is a weak point in my game I am trying to correct. Its just so easy to call and all in with KJ o when you have 5 to 10 times as many chips as the all in.
 
these videos are always very good. with great days and so I learn every time but and I end up decreasing my losses in tournaments, thank you very much for the teachings
