Methods used to determine calling ranges

[TwistedEcho]

Well you can run PT when you play so you get preflop stats, its not perfect but someone who has played 60/10/3 is more likely to call you than a 6/6/3.

Obviously the lower buyin the tournament the more they call, although the higher buyins people call more too. Basically at the lowest buyins people suck and think JT is a good hand to call with, the middle stakes people tighten up and realise they should be folding tons, and the highest stakes people realise everyone is pushing tons, so can call light.

Also the more you push the more likely someone will look you up, the worse your image is the more likely they will call. people don't like being pushed around and obviously the more you push, the bigger your hand range is for players who actually take notice.
