So about a month ago I returned to playing online poker again. I have did a lot more reading and basically studying. I have participated in some live tourneys as well just to see if the books had helped in anyway. So the first week I played I cashed about 5 times (mostly in 9th place but that's a different conversation). So then when i found the articles on mtt tournaments I read everyone and the biggest thing that stood out to me was it kept restating never get your hand all in with a mediocre hand. So lately i have been folding a lot more preflop and to be truthful it seems to really be hurting me. I have not cashed in 3 weeks. I"m always low stacked late in the tourney and a lot of the folds I have been making are turning out to be bad because my hand would have held up in a lot of these situations. I think I'm just playing too tight now especially early where i use to catch some idiot doubling me up so i can buckle down until i get something really good.So for fathers day i have decided to play about 5 tourneys today where im going to chase and reraise and do every other thing i have been taught not to do early in a tourney. I will call this donk day it should make me feel alot better lol.
