General Tourney Strategy

[stormswa]

I have never gotten any books on tournament strategy's but Im happy to know that what I wrote is in them. Most good tourney players do play tight in early stages of tournaments and most don't like to coin flip in beginning stages. My tournament results speak for themselves both live and online so I do not feel I need to "prove" anything to you sir. All money I have ever lost has been on cash games, which I admit that im terrible at.

I dont think any of my points indicate a weak/tight approach to the game, if by saying I dont want to put my tourney life on the line in a coin flip in early stages makes me weak/tight then so be it but trust me in saying that I'm not alone here. If me saying that I dont want to overplay 2 weak pair and be out of the tourney makes me weak/tight then again im not alone again.

as for squeaking into the money, no dont think I ever said that, I actully think I said the opposite. I usually dont just squeak into the money ever, the real money isnt until the final table. BUT I would much rather go up against small stacks where if I happen to lose the coinflip or race im not out of the tourney instead of going up against the only guy in tourney that can bust me. This is a very very basic concept that I hope you understand, if you dont PM me and I could give you a link or send you to cardrunners tourney video page and you can just pick a video to download because im sure they say it in pretty much any one.

Like I said most of my concepts I put up here are very basic and wouldnt help a experienced tournament player because they already know them, this was more for players that are new to tourneys.
