Default Re: Mid-Stage MTT (sorry if there\'s a post about this before)

I can give you a couple of pointers:-

Harrington wrote that if your M is below 20 (above 10) you need to be aggresive with high cards and high pairs. If you feel you need to play A6o ( I personally wouldnt, I'd wait until the button,CO etc and go for lots of stealing etc )from UTG+1 then 3xBB raise is not enough. Either limp (bad) or stick a bigger raise in. Folding is best though.

The Red Zone - because the blinds are about to turn you into a sitting duck, and you're first in you need to push as low as 10 6o. Unless someone has a pocket pair, you'll mostly pick up the antes and blinds which is what you're trying to achieve in this zone, in order to keep treading water until you get a hand that you can double up on.

Hope this helps
