| Coverting Deep Stack to Normal SNG/MTT Hey, my first post! Any tips on this? I seem to have better results when playing a deep stack SNG or MTT than when I play a standard stack. As for turbos - dont event get me started. Only just begun playing properly and cashed in a freeroll and just won a 90 SNG. But really early days and just starting out really. There are too few deep stack tourneys - how do I tweak my game to adjust to normal games. Do I increase my starting range? Help? |

| No, dont increase your starting range. Tournament poker is more about surviving, so in the beginning you should be very carefull with taking coinflips. Its also often better to take a small safe pot, than to chase a bigger pot that can get you bust. But dont adjust too much, you still need to take risks at times, but just remember, 2 opponents going all in vs each other is Ev+ for everyone else. |

| Oh wait, I read your question wrong, you want to compare deep stacks tourneys to more shallow tourneys. I would still be carefull, a hand like KJs is an instafold to me. But maybe you can see more flops with small pairs, or 67s when someone has raised in front of you. |

You sound like a decent judge of risk and you don't have much of a problem getting paid off for taking those risks. In my opinion, it sounds like you might be tightening up your play just because you have a standard or short stack. Is that about right? |

| Yeah possibly - not sure what it is but have far more joy when I have some chips to play with. Must be a quirk with my style of play - not a fan of the push and hope you find at low levels? Practice I suppose? But any tips would be great |
