Hi All,
I need some help please!
I made the final of our regional championships which is on this Sunday 11th December. Winner gets a $10,000 buy-in to the Aussie Millions in Melbourne plus airfares, accommodation etc. All up the prize is worth about $15,000.
Format is as follows:
Game: NLHE
Entrants: 60
Starting Stack: $ 30,000
Opening blinds: $25/50
Levels Increase: Every 25 mins.
Scheduled For: 8 hours
First prize: $ 15,000
Second prize: $ 1,500
Third prize: $ 500
The 60 entrants are all other players who have won qualifiers, so a real mix of people. They range from extreme nits to extreme maniacs.
These are all players I know and who know me. My image at the table is tight aggressive with good reads.
A sample of some of the other players are:
M – Plays all draws aggressively, chases down all flushes no matter what the odds.
D – Plays any two cards. Impossible to put on a range, big bluffer, very aggressive.
B – Plays either premium starting hands or rags, depending on mood, will often play hands like 6 4o from early position.
K – Plays strictly by the maths. Starting hands are always top 25 and plays strictly to the numbers for draws etc.
J - Tight, hyper aggressive, lots of steals, almost always makes final table.
I generally make the final table ¾ times, but most often short-stacked or mid-stack range. Have never made the FT as the big stack as I tend to avoid coin flips as much as possible (maybe too much?)
Does anyone have any specific advice for this format? Any insights would be very welcome, If you want to ask more questions, please fire away and I will respond.
The plan for this week is to spend as much time on CC as I can and hopefully pick up a few tips along the ways that will help.
Really appreciate any advice/help I can get.
Thanks,
Cuttle Fish
