have played and I have seen that I can not reach the monetary phase of the tournaments I try to play strong ranger hands plus the cards are not connecting. What do I have to do to change that?

friend, this can be a phase or you can be betting without predicting the possibility that your opponent may be with a game bigger than yours, pay attention to the players and their moves, this can give you the profile of them.

Hi.
Welcome to our community.
In my opinion, you need more patience.
Try in such cases to focus your attention on making the right decisions. Experience is acquired over time, but for this you need to be patient.
Good luck.

play more hands, watch your position, and watch the bankroll, the more chips, the more hands you play, the fewer chips on your hands, the stronger your hand

good game

it is necessary to spit three times over the left shoulder and on a full moon four times to knock on a tree, and to be honest, then you’re in trouble, you’re in trouble. I feel the same thing and I lost my bankroll and still do not give access to freerolls:mad::mad::mad:

playing only strong hands can be problem, it may take a while to get these hand and If the tournament would have ante you will be losing for several rounds and you will be very predictable for the other players. Playing a little more hands would be great and some bluffs are also important.

Rather than play them, play them harder pre flop, try in position. Reduce the number of players in the hand and bet over cards.

Play more. If you're really only losing because of bad luck then you will eventually get a good enough run to make it deep in a tournament. However, because you're most likely making mistakes that you aren't aware of, go back and analyze the hands that you lost on. If you had better odds all-in and lost, ignore that hand; I'm talking about hands where you got caught on a bluff, or outplayed in some way. Try to remember what you were thinking during the hand, what range you had on your opponent, and assess whether or not you made any suboptimal plays.

Hello.
I think, first of all you have to be patient. Secondly, try to play only with strong cards. Thirdly, try to play every day and improve your game every time.

Review the hands you lose. Look to see if there is anything you could have done better in position such as raising in position or folding with a mediocre hand instead of limping and catching a piece but get trapped by better.

How much are you raising preflop? Are you 3-betting? Are you continuation betting?

These things might help.

Good luck !

Hi there, all very good advice, I would say what others have said, more practice, situations are different so sometimes you'll need to play tight sometimes aggressive, just depends, more importantly though I'd say find your rhythm, watch how and when and how much players are betting and find your spot, and just keep at it, sometimes that 1st cash or FT takes a long time, but so worth it once achieved, winning is a habit imo, once you can win or cash once, you'll do it again and again, good luck and keep asking for advice if you need, also find some good players to play against if you can, strong opposition is a fast track to learning imo, haha as many cc members here will admit :)

Hello.
Perhaps you are a beginner player like me. I think that the best way to stop losing is to play freerolls. This will allow you to gain experience and improve your game.

the best thing you can do to improve your game quickly is to watch poker favorites videos, especially during big events, and get inspired by them. you have to find the style of play that suits you the most. The biggest poker champion plays tightly and aggressively. selecting your starting hands by playing them aggressively will increase your chances of reaching paid places.

the detail is that not always the strongest hand wins, that is obvious and you can see it throughout the tournament, try to play more hands, not only the strong ones, but play carefully, try to make your own review of your game , and be honest with you, if you know that you failed by betting badly on an anotalo move, correct those mistakes that have made you fail, keep trying, the practice will make you improve and expand the knowledge, you will see that you will get good results

Yesterday had really good tourney pokerstars buyin was1.10 6max after 7hours of playing got till final table with solid chip count as well but was bit mad on my self as I left in 7th place I knew I could get atleast in top 3 but few unlucky hands I was out but oh well build my bankroll for $50 but could be better. So if you wanna get somewhere at the turney prepare to spend long time and I'm always trying to be bit over on an average chip count even if must steal some blinds sometimes. And don't afraid to wait so monster hands from beginning while blinds are low.

You need to play with lots of patients and no fear:0) when you get a good hand go all in or a really good bet and hope your cards hit and if not stick with your hand and hopefully the other players will fold:0)
