Hi everyone.
I'm studying my preflop ranges at the moment, and I want to look into some theory around bet sizing to go along with it (this is for online tournament poker, rather than cash/live) - in particular, opening size from the SB.
I am currently using the following strategy:
When effective stacks are 50bb+, I'm opening 3x from EP, 2.5x from MP, 2.2x from the BU and 2.5x from the SB.
When effective stacks are around 30-40bb, I'm opening 2.5x from EP and MP, and 2.1x from BU. I'm still tending to use 2.5x from SB.
When effective stacks are 15-25bb, I'm opening 2.3x from EP, 2.1/2.2x from MP, 2x from BU, and 2.2x from the SB.
I feel comfortable with the EP, MP and LP, but I'm unsure as to whether my SB sizing needs some thought.
What sizing people are generally using when RFI from the SB, and why do you choose the size? I appreciate that adjustments will be made based on who the BB is, but I'd still like to make sure my 'default' sizing is accurate enough so that I can adjust appropriately based BB's tendencies. Thanks for any input!
