Molte persone mi fanno spesso domande specifiche per sapere come diventare giocatori da torneo vincenti.
Quante chips dovrei avere dopo i primi due livelli?
Devo giocare molte mani quando i bui sono bassi e successivamente giocare più chiuso quando i bui aumentano?
I seem to always finish the tournament on the bubble. I have to play more closed when I get close to the money or do I try to win as many chips from the first hand?
These three questions all have the same answer: it is useless to try to force your game. We must concentrate on playing solid poker and then the chips will go in the right direction.
This is probably the best answer to any question on how to play a tournament. A more important question is this: what is the difference between the cash game strategy and the tournament?
The answer is less than you think.
Before worrying about how giocare un torneo, concentrati su come adattare il tuo gioco in base agli avversari. Una delle qualità più importanti di un buon giocatore è la capacità di reagire allo stile di gioco dei tuoi avversari. I giocatori capaci di farlo avranno successo sia nel cash che nei tornei.
Uno degli errori più comuni quando si gioca un torneo è proprio il fatto di voler adattare troppo il proprio gioco al torneo. Rileggiamo alcune delle domande iniziali: Quante chips dovrei avere dopo i primi due livelli?
La risposta è semplice: il maggior numero possibile.
Gioca con le carte che hai in mano. Gioca contro il tuo avversario. È inutile forzare il tuo gioco solo perché pensi di aver “bisogno” to have a certain number of chips to win. You have to think of winning chips and at the same time keep the ones you have. Your chances of winning increase as you accumulate chips. If you have a few chips, then your chances decrease.
Forget the magic number. There is a figure below which you have no chance of winning and at the same time there is no maximum number that guarantees the right peace. Remain attached to the number of chips is certainly a way to return home early. The next question is:
I play a lot of hands when the blinds are low and then play more closed when the blinds increase? The
your game is not where to change much as the tournament progresses. You have to develop a strategy that allows you to maximize your wins against your opponents, beyond the level of play. Many players are too loose in the early stages of a tournament. Instead of playing like them, fit the way you play their style and try to steal the blinds less often, more often called their bids and make the raises against more frequently. When
then the players become more closed, you can try to steal the blinds more often and you should try not to take part in dishes where other players have entered unless you have a good point in hand. This should be a reaction to the play style of your opponents, not an action based on the stage of the tournament.
The last question is: Should I play more closed when I get close to the money or do I try to win as many chips from the first hand?
Usually, people who are already playing this question closed long before making the money. In other words, too are adapting their game to the fact of playing a tournament. It is not a correct move to play too close when there are two or three more players before making the money. This way you will surely play out in the bubble. Continue playing tight and aggressive and not let go of your stack to a point where you could not protect it with a raise all in pre-flop. If this is the case, your opponents will have the right pot odds to call, even with marginal hands. Search for the right time to make your move, even if it means raising with a hand that you do not think worth much.
Next week, we will discuss a couple of situations where it is important to adapt your game.
