Whats up TPE dawgs!
Most of you have much bigger accomplishments than this but yesterday I qualifed for the 100k Bovada tourney. Finshed 31st out of 525 when it ended. I would appreciate any advice that any of you could give me for today's tourney. It seems like alot of the players don't like getting to the flop. Saw a bunch show down very marginal hands. Didn't know if this was standard or perhaps it was because it was a qualifier. I try to not have a planned strategy and just play each hand for what its worth but wanted to hear from those much wiser than myself. Merry Christmas to all of you and thanks for reading. I look forward to hearing from all of you.

Sorry I missed this earlier. Generally speaking, best advice in situations like this is play tight early while you get a feel for your table, play big hands fast. Bovada is super soft and people will spew so go for max value when you make hands.
Even thought players are anonymous, you can still take notes on the guys at your table. Take advantage of this as it can be especially important when its hard to remember if it was Player 32 or player 154 who you saw 3 bet the last 4 times he had the button.

I agree with Killingbird as to beginning tight and then opening up. As far as your mindset, I learned more from studying this man than any poker player and I play this before every tournament. Play each hand independently. Don’'t try to outplay your opponent's, merely try to be intune with the harmony of the game. Pay attention to the game flow. When your opponents are weak, attack; when they are strong, withdraw. Be shapeless, be formless, like water. Don’'t be stuck in any one way.

Thanks to all of you for replying, love the video!! Anyhow, wanted to give an update. Not whining cuz we all hear it from every poker player on earth but I literally didnt get a hand to play. Not that I didnt try to play but when I made a move someone had the goods. Thats poker I know. The one hand I went in on was with 88 on the button. Had 3 limpers pre. I was down to 10 BB. I shoved, SB folded, BB called all others folded. He turned over AA, I hit an 8 on the flop, he hit an A on the turn LOL. On a positve not the next day I played in a small tourney and won it, small beans but it felt good :). Thanks to all of you here at TPE for your input and I truly enjoy talking with you. Look me up on Twitter! Donscott@Ganfija
