Hi All,
Was in a $50 NLHE rebuy live tourney on Monday. 60 runners. Top prize was around $3,000 then dropped down to $250 for 7th.
Starting stack $ 2k Opening blinds $25/50 Blind levels increase every 20 mins.
In Round 3 blinds were $75/150. Round 3 was last round where re-buys were allowed so lots of loose play.
Was up to about $3k by this stage, picked up rockets and raised, got 5 all-ins! they held up and I was up to $24k Ave stack by then was $3k .
Then it all went to pot. Tightened up, a couple of bad beats, next time I looked I was at $8k and blinds were already up to $ 800/1600. Ended up shoving , went out in 14th place.
Spent the rest of the night thinking WTF happened?
How do I play big stack early? At $24k there was daylight between me and the next guy.
Appreciate any advice.
