How good is your tournament play. I'm looking for some help in playing down to the final three people in a tournament game. So if anyone can add some strategy, I would like to hear about it.
As for me. I tend to keep playing tight when I make it to a final table. Still playing only good cards and trying to use my position to steal pots. If you can steal pots, this will help out tremendous. So even in a 3 way, I'm looking to steal what I can from my opponents, just to take that bit off of them.
At the same time I'm not afraid to fold away junk. No sense in calling with nothing and letting that add up to another 4 blinds you could of seen right?
As long as your Big stacked, this is ok. But what if your on the low end of a 3-way. Are you waiting for the two best cards before the blinds eat you up.
The thing is that I have seen people play this different ways. I have seen people pushing all-in with good cards when they get them, as well I have seen people almost blind out only to hit a run of cards and come back.
What makes the difference on a 3-way play. Should you loosen up your cards and play more. Is it better to play then or when blinds are at 1,000 or if someone raises it 2,000.
How many people would prefer to let the other two people battle it out, so you can go heads up.
