Hello guys, My name is Mike. I’m a recreational player with a full time job and just love playing tournaments. I started playing poker about 10 years ago. I first started playing on Pokerstars and use to play the 4.40 180 player mtts…I probably only won like 2 of them in like 5 years…lol Since black Friday,  I have just stuck to playing live tournaments. I took some time off and just started playing serious again. In March, I played in a 230 buy in with 120 players at the Parx Casino. I made it to the final 5 and we chopped for 3580. A week later I chopped for 3000 at the local donkament tournament at my home Casino..Hollywood Casino in pa…

            Since then I started playing 5,10, and 20 dollar mtts on Ig… usually 10k starting stack.So yes, I’m back to playing online again and feel like I play too knitty. In the beginning of these tournaments I play very tight and sometimes try to open it up in the middle stages and then donk off my chips trying to make moves so then I go back to being knitty again. then Im left with 10 bb and lose it anyway. I always feel like people are bluffing so I call them down like a donk and lose chips that way. when I have 15 bb and im first to act I don’t know if I should raise or ship it..pre flop in these tournaments im raising 2 to 2.5 bb and don’t if I should change that up either. So im guessing I need to learn more about what ranges to play in early and late position in the middle stages and when to push or fold and stop being so knitty!!!!Any videos you would suggest?

ps…sorry for the book I just wrote!!!

So nice to have you join, Great live results as of late as well. Best thing to do is stay current, we release 4 full length videos every week (Mon-Tues-Thurs-Fri) so keeping up with the latest releases will help you stay in the know. TPEU can be used to test your retention level, watch the vids and take the test to see how well you score.
