I've been playing small steak STT and MTTs (between $4-$8) pretty solidly getting some pretty good results for quite a while. Today I won a seat in the Red Spade Open on stars ($55 buy in 1m gtd). How will this alter to the micro buyins and how do you think I should change my playing style?
Re: Difference between a $5 Buy in and a $5 buy in
this tourney has alot of qualifiers (ie a low percentage of regs).
just play the style you are most comfortable with vs your competition and that wins chips. there is no magical answer, just be active in finding the weak players on the table and exploid them (by either playing tighter or loser than your comfort zone)
Re: Difference between a $5 Buy in and a $5 buy in
Stay tight at the early levels but maintain your aggression and don't let regs bully you.
don't be intimidated by the buy-in or the money at stake , just make the right decisions as you always would and best of luck
