180players sng @ stars

[gibsa]

Hello!

I have played poker for a year and run good at NL cashgame, like nl25, nl50 and some NL100...But tired of it now and started to play tournaments nowadays. I like the 180player sng @ stars..2 weeks of play, I have one victory and yesterday i came in 2nd place. Maybe played it totally 5 times..But it will be more!

Now to the question. The tournament pays 10-19 the same amount. How shall this affect my game? Steal more on the bubble or so on? Do i need to take more coinflips? Or what should i think of when we start to reach ITM. I am new in tournaments but i have played good the times i have played.

you should be willing to gamble for chips building a big stack for the final table, people are going to be waiting around in these spaces even though 11th gets the same as 19th(its no a good strategy), so you should try to exploit this

im not an mtt player but theres my 2c

yeah. yesterday I played the bubble aggresive, and it gave result. Almost everyone at the table were playin the bubble really tight, so i was able to build a big stack for the FT

Play the bubble aggressive in the 180's, tighten up right after as people will be willing to gamble once they are ITM. Repeat on FT bubble.
