I recently joined and played a tournament at the casino (2nd time ever) - No limit hold em tournament it was.
First tournament I ever played in was a month or so ago and I placed 12th out of 34 players.
This tournament I placed 6th out of 45 players (but of course was the bubble and was the last person before I got paid out). My question was regarding tournament strategy... I know early stages its recommended to play extremely tight and then from the middle on wards to go for steals and other things to keep your stack consistent.
Problem for me was the whole time I was short stack and I had a lot of trouble getting myself a decent chip stack and that's mainly the reason why I lost. On the final table I was consistently shortstacked and my question was....how do you guys play pre flop in the middle/late stages of a tournament?
What strategies do you guys use for casino tournaments to place in them?
