At Short Handed Tables
Hi,
Before anything, thanks for your quick response last time.
Well, I’m here again to ask you something. At a short handed table, say at the the end of the tourney, how should my play change compared to regular one? I know for a fact that I have to loosen up however most of the time I end up playing aggressively. Any advice?
Thank you very much.
All the best,
Leo
Leo,
You should loosen up your hand requirements late. The easiest way to think about this is to take hands that you would play in later position and back up a position with them. Play late position hands even in middle position, middle position hands in early position, and widen your late position holdings up a bit. When you do flop a strong hand, then play the hand aggressively. Also push your big hand.
