3x is a good starting point but you can often adjust your bet sizing in slightly larger ways. For example, raising to 4x vs fish in the early stages to build up a pot when they won't notice it or won't care it's larger due to the relative smallness of the bet compared to their stack size, or raising to 2.5x when you're stealing in the later stages or raising from late position. :)

Preflop raise sizes go usually like this: online tourney ---> online cashgame ---> live tourney ---> live cashgame
It has to do with the stacksizes, the fish and so on ... :cool:

I don´t like to play live, ok sometimes for entertaining purpose, but not too often. Online is more profitable, faster and more fun ! :D
