How do you play when the chips are low?

[kaynbergo]

if the stack is smaller than 10bb, I wait for a pair from 99 or AK and then I push these hands

 

[pansipos]

I try to wait for good cards

 

[Recreationalplayer]

Push Fold strategy when stack size is less than or equal to 10BB

 

[Trismegisto]

Under 10 - 15 BB, push or fold

 

[mclay]

When the chips are low obviously we need to switch to push / fold mode

But with what kind of hands we can do so will absolutely depends upon your opponents at the table you are playing

We gotta adjust our shove range based on that

But Generally
With 10-15 bb
We gotta stick with AT + , QKs , KJs ,sometimes I even go for TJs , QTs , KTs based completely on table dynamics and opponents
As for pairs with 10-15 bb
It's 66+ for me
But it's adjustable based on situation

Some people would even go with 22 as well

With 5-7 bb
Any Ax , connectors , +22

Well done, you'll go far. Stop freerolling before you start playing like all the freerollers.

For me it depends on several factors, stage of the tournament, I know I have few chips, but how few are they?... Being close to the bubble with few chips is not the same as having few chips almost at the beginning of the tournament, after ITM or being close to FT, for me that conditions me in deciding to what extent I can take the risk with certain cards, or to what extent I can resist with that amount of chips

Play tight and when you get a reasonable hand, go all in and hope for the best.

At that situation the only thing you can do is to play aggressively and go all in to steal blinds, or take a pot with a strong hand! You can always return to the game!

 

[Bnobob]

Don't play, try to stay in the tournament and explore the table, see the players who are involved in many hands so you can double down on them or double down when good cards come up.

Play tight and when you get a reasonable hand, go all in and hope for the best.

Staying in this vein, the masters do not demonstrate this at the live tables

 

[pavel1111111]

well , when I drop under 20 BBs , I usually go all in with pretty much any ace and any pair

 

[antonis32123]

If I am very low in chips I will play aggressively .
