stealing Q
Late stages of a tourney and you're down to 3 people. You have ~4k in chips, opponent on your left hhas ~4k and the other has ~13 in chips. Blinds are at 150/300 and go up to 200/400 in a 15mins. From there they just keep doubleing every 15 mins or so.
What is your range of stealing otb and in the sb. I'm usually stealing ~35%otb and ~40% in the sb, too tight?

Re: stealing Q
By stealing do you mean shoving or still standard raising? Reads on your opponents? Calling ranges? Too broad.

[/ QUOTE ] By stealing I mean any attempt to pick up the blinds either by shoving or making a standard raise. I think I have enough in my stack where I dont need to open push just in case I get played back at, I can still get away from my hand but I'm curious as to what the more experienced tourney players think of this Reads guy on my left (sb when I'm button, bb when I'm sb) is pretty taggy but a little to loose. He'll reraise w/his good hands and fold most of his garbage. He won't reraise w/total bs but he's definatly shoving w/hands like A9s and such if I raise from sb. He has ~4k worth of chips Guy on my right (bb when I'm button, sb when I'm bb) is too tight. He'll give up his bb fairly easily if I raise and he doesn't have a premium hand but will rereaise/call w/any premium hand, big aces, most pairs, KQ and thats prolly it. He open limps a lot in the sb and folds to a lot of continuation bets on the flop. He has 13k in chips My image - The guys I'm playing with have played with me for years. They know I'm a TAG and play pretty aggro and usually strait foward. They know I'm a thinking player and respect my play. Of course since it's gotten pretty short, I'm raising a whole lotta hands pf and taking down a lot of pots w/my flop c-bets. I have ~4k in chips So I ask the forum once again, what % of hands do you steal with? Can you give me a range so I can see if I'm too tight or too loose. I mostly play cash games so while I understand the value of position and winning the blinds, I'm not used to having to adjust my ranges so drastically b/c the blinds stay at the same level throughout the game.

Re: stealing Q
You think your too tight when you are trying to steal 75% of the time in this situation? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
Maybe I missed something reading the question but that was what I got from it(you try and steal 75%=35%btn-40%sb)

Re: stealing Q
Peter I think you got the math wrong. 35%btn and 40%sb = 7,5/20 = 37,5% of the time
