Keep it tight to start with and only play the premiun hands. However when you get the biggies then be aggressive with them and make them count. Remember as with all sites you need to win more than 50% to show a profit over a period of time.

just play your normal game.....and if it don't work work on it.....you will have different people at different times....there no really a good answer to this

Playing your normal game is probably the last thing you want to do in these.

Keep it tight to start with and only play the premiun hands. However when you get the biggies then be aggressive with them and make them count. Remember as with all sites you need to win more than 50% to show a profit over a period of time.

On Stars, you need to win 52% (aside from the $1s where you need to win 55%), and on other sites, it can be more depending on the rake. Also, the bigger your stack, the tighter you should play. Not the other way around. Many people seem to get this flip flopped.

Steal shoves (assuming that this includes value shoves) should begin at 50/100 (assuming the standard Stars structure) depending on your stack size, position, and how tight remaining villain calling ranges are.

-The shorter you are relative to the blinds, the wider you can shove
-The tighter remaining villains are, the wider you can shove
-The less villains remaining in the hand there are, the wider you can shove
-The more even villain stack sizes are, the wider you can shove (another way to state this is that if there are super short stacks that are about to blind out, play "uber tight")


WOW

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.

Perfect advice.

Thanks WurlyQ.
