I want to read about because sometimes I find myself being 3rd and shortstack (like 25bb vs 90-75bbs stacks) and I don't know how to adjust my game in order to not get down everytime to -15bb.
What I do in general is attack the 2nd V with 3b pushes with wide range (range depending on V). And same with 1st but with a tighter range. When they let me play like when they just call in SB I try to get stacked with any TP GK by the turn and play passive 2pair+ if they are agressive.
In general I'm not very agressive and tend to win some hands but if the other 2 Vs are not crazy I always get to the point of -15bb. Thats why I want to check my strategy for this and see how wide my range should be taking ICM considerations because I think I can solve this thing in regular no-ICM spots by just using charts and knowing V's range but here sometimes I feel waiting for better hands sucks me out
Alot of players at start face this problem as they cant set their ranges , when and whom to 3bet and what to do , and you get your self in confused spot , ill try to expalin you a bit , Lets use example micro tour of 3.3buyin and that you are deep in tour like 80 to 100BB , Frist what i watch on table on that spots is how my opponets playing on the table , then adjust your self to that play , fallow your signs when you see your oppent playing loosly on that stakes will be 1-3 players them you dont want to 3-bet 4-bet or even move all ins with em you want to play as much postflops as you can, now on hands you want to value lets use this ones for example you have A910of/st QJ KG KJ in spots when you deep with those hands try 3bet em vs CO opens UTG UTG +1 etc but watch out that you doing that in in 1 v 1 situtation only, lets now go when you have postition of CO or Button or SB when you that deep and opponets 2 your left have like 15+BB 20+BB 25+BB you could mostly hands jam in range of 44 to 77 J10+ to A10/ KQ- hands you want to open in that spot are AK / AQ / KK / QQ / AA / JJ / TT , also if you regural on MTT's always note players in tables what they did and what happen , can help alot in late games, also dont be afraid of that if you lose -15BB or so as you always can make it back with plays , and also it is not about your feel about waiting , it means your are not comfortable in those spots you just need to set playss up on that stages in tours , almost same as you making your chips in start of tournaments you just need to find your comfortable startgy in that period of tournament
Hope this will help you writed best as i could if need anything more bee free to pm or just write down..
