After about a 6 month hiatus from live tournaments, (Mainly since I don't have enough luck in them, ironically my $1/2 no limit live game is better) I'm planning to play in a $250 buy in tournament at the casino I frequent.
Format: $150k guarantee, $20k guarantee for 1st.
15k starting stack, 2 day tournament, 6 starting flights (1A-1F).
Day 1 25 min levels. Day 1 ends when 11% of starting flight is left and qualify for Day 2. Day 2 40 min levels, all players cash.
Tournament is pretty soft
I play fairly TAG, do my best to see flops cheaply and in position. Capable of making plays at the pot when I sense weakness in opponents.
One area I struggle in is at middle levels when stack sizes become shallower (smaller M ratio, stack/bb smaller) and becomes push-fold shovefest. This ends up being the case usually because I'm unable to keep up my stack when deep and cant open shove since usually an opponent will push before I act.
How do you go about it in these tournaments?
