Getting deep in an mtt, I always have problems maintaining when it gets late. Any suggestions? Here's my stats so far, thx.

Stack: largest 32855, smallest 0, average 6600
Your current position is 35 out of 352
Time bank balance is 60 seconds
in 12 min blinds 200/400 ante 25
For more information see Tournament Lobby


During current Hold'em session you were dealt 92 hands and saw flop:
- 6 out of 11 times while in big blind (54%)
- 4 out of 11 times while in small blind (36%)
- 11 out of 70 times in other positions (15%)
- a total of 21 out of 92 (22%)
Pots won at showdown - 4 of 6 (66%)
Pots won without showdown - 5

your stats look good.
do you feel youre getting coaxed into calling in the BB when you have nothing just because its a min raise or a small one?

how many places are paying?

and what is your stack...

id say your playin pretty tight, if the tables observant of that steal steal steal when those blinds get worth it, especially aroudn the bub

edit- a good tight, not a bad tight

Yes. I tend to want to protect too much, especially if it's heads up, I want to see the flop.

when you get closer to the money, its always good to steal blinds when you can. usually in later positions

$3 buy in, pay 351, we're down to 250, not worth it unless you make the final 6 tho. I'm sitting with about 13,000 right now, average is 10,000.

Cool, i'll try to loosen up and do some of that.

when ya notice ya got a tight asst able (which youll get when u get into the money at stars), start raising in any late position, or with any 2-face card hand. if you get reraised, you can muck. it works well. generally, raise 3x BB.

Getting into the nitty griddy, stick with the steals in late position and tight play?? Or loosen up a bit against the more skilled competition? Or mix it up!! LOL..
