MTT question

[Rounder101]

whats the best aproach for the early stages of the 55$ tourney, 50 000 guaranteed at Stars?? Should I play super tight??

You cannot answer this unless you know the players at your table .

What are you more comfortable doing? And is it a big hit on your roll?

If you like to get involved and can get away from 'trap' hands, then i definately say loosen up. There are just too many loose chips flying around at the start of a tourney, you want to get the donks chips before the sharks do.

Esp, if $55 is not much out of you b/roll.

I was going to start my own post but this may be related:

If say you are playing a little loose with "trap" hands, i.e. A10, KQ suited, and you flop/turn big draws (~14+ outs): how do you play them...

to a flat called cbet?
to minraise?
to a small oop bet?
if its checked to you?

Also, I play smaller buyin tournaments, no higher than 24+2 on ft that I usually win tokens for. Does the size of the field also matter?

Let me know if this is the wrong place for this post/questions.

What this tourney like compared to the lower buy ins or the 20/180?
