First of all, thank you for answering Mason.

Hi DJSirMatthew:

No. Suppose your M will be cut in half in three hands. I agree that you may make an adjustment based on that. But what does that have to do with tournament speed. Three hands is three hands.

True, three hands is three hands. But isn't it so that in fast tournaments it will happen more frequently for your M to be cut down?

Harrington II does address this. If your M is 25 and you know that on the next hand it goes to 12 it might be right to make an adjustment. And if your M is 12 and on the next hand it goes to 7 it may be right to make another adjustment. But this can happen in a very slow tournament as well.

Same response as above: the frequency this situation will occur in a very slow to slow tournament is lower than in a fast tournament?

I agree that in the red zone it might be correct to move in with a seven-deuce. But it can't be correct to make this same play in the green zone.

True. I didn't mean to say you should make a move with 7/2o in the Green Zone. My mistake for not being clear.

[ QUOTE ]
A lot of this confusion occurs because, as Harrington II points out, many players are playing tight when they should be somewhat desperate.

And this is what I meant when saying Arnold might make a useful adjustment to people's play just like Ed did for limit play. Making Dans subtle definition of Green Zone play a bit more clear: it's NOT only waiting for premium hands...
