STAYING ALIVE

Tournaments are about survival. Doubling up early means much less regarding your chances of winning than doubling up with just a few tables remaining. The fewer fifty-fifty chances I take, especially early in a tournament, the better off I am.

BUILD A TIGHT IMAGE EARLY

I’ve found very tight play—squeaky-tight, some might say—during the first two or three stages of a tournament to be very valuable:

♣ I build a great image as a tight player, and I’m able to exploit this image when the blinds go up.

♣ I don’t risk losing a lot of chips with weak hands.

♣ The blinds really are too small to be worth stealing.

♣ I have a chance to sit back and watch, profiling players and picking up their tells before I have to get involved in a pot and make big decisions against them.
