Yeah I mean I mostly agree. Thinking it will be helpful for me to at least get reps in, get an understanding of how often I get dealt a premium hand vs a "good" hand etc.
Also interested in how far i can widen hand selection in putting on pressure with a chip lead approaching the bubble, vs how much i need to tighten up approaching the bubble as a short stack. All tournament ideas i mostly have an idea of in NL Holdem, and to just get an idea of how that extrapolates out to limit & different games. again though, play money world probably not the best place to get a reliable response from villians

I had thought this as well - I found an equity calculator for the ORSE games which I feel like will be valuable for me to just type in situations and get an idea of the %'s, and then see how that changes if X is a dead card vs Y is a dead card etc
