Hello all,
I am going to share a very typical situation that I find myself in. I need to answer the following question:
How do I get a bigger stack going to the final table without busting out on the bubble?
Here is the situation; I wrote this down the other day during a break of a 90 player $2.20 MTT on Stars. The blinds increase every 10 min.)
Blinds $125/250 Ante $30
Me: t9206
Largest Stack: t19,996
Shortest Stack: t2,638
Your current position is 11/18
Dealt 120 and saw flop 21/120 times.
Pots won at showdown: 4/6
Pots won without showdown: 20
Is there anything wrong with these statistics; am I playing to many/to few hands? Am I not blind stealing enough? I almost always find myself, like this, having a medicre stack when its crunch time. In fact, in this tourney, I finished 9th (a lousy finish for 3 hours of play time).
