I've started playing poker again after 3 years. I used to rarely play but whenever I did I studied a lot. Now I'm back and will be playing on weekends only.


What I need help with -
1. The right resources for low/mid stake turbo bounties, reg speed GTD, 6-max turbos mtts and the similar. The ones I play on average have around 100 to 500 people.

2. I just recently learned about ranges, but I want to go as deep as I can to improve my game. What else should I know that I don't know?

3. Books, audiobooks, youtubers, streamers that talk about the decisions they take or are just good to watch to improve your game(and not just entertaining).

4. Slightly off-topic, but how do you win with majority pros playing in your tournaments? Or on the other hand, majority of unpredictable for-fun players?

Anything I should've asked that I left out?
Thank you a lot.

Hello.
Congratulations on your return.
I play only exclusively in MTT tournaments.
I recommend you to read the book Jared Tendler "The Mental Game of Poker".
Good luck.

Hi, I advise you to start playing tournaments with a slow or regular structure, and not play turbo tournaments. The game for this time has become very aggressive.
I advise you to use programs such as Holdem Manager 2
From the books I would recommend the book "Secrets of Professional Tournament Poker" Jonathan Little

Good inexpensive bounty tournaments remained perhaps only in the MPN.

If you like playing turbo tournaments, then you need to know about the game with a short stack (this is inevitable, because the blind grow fast) and the tactics of push / fold games at short tables and with low stacks. Find a good ICM-trainer (soft) and practice this. You will be surprised at how well this works.

Books - I would not recommend anything, oddly enough. Poker does change, it becomes more aggressive. And what was written in these books - remained unchanged and you probably already read them.

Hi.
Three years ago, I also had a long break, almost a year, I did not play poker at all. When I started playing again, I actually played only freerolls and SNG tournaments.
Now, the most advantageous for me is the SNG tournaments.
Good luck.
