ending tourneys

[thestellarhippo]

i have trouble ending tourneys. i've got a hold of the tight aggressive thing to get to the top three of almost every tourney i play (only up to 1k level...) but i have a lot of trouble winning, even if i get to the top three as the chip leader. how should i play the end of tourneys to do better? thanks!

I have found a way that usually gets me to top 2 or a win. End up with at least 3rd or preferrably 2nd place in chips near final 4 and dont blow most of your stack at that time. Then, wait for good hands and use agression whn you REALLY know you have best hand. gl =]

i guess i figured it out, i just won my first! only at 1.2k, but it was a well played game, lots of tight play.

Just remember that as the number of people reduce the requirements for calling and raising reduce. If you just wait for a premium hand you will get outplayed. You need to use positional advantage and other plays to keep the chips rolling in.

Hope this helps

Yup.

When it's down to three players, you need to be the most aggressive played on the table.
Stealing blinds will be the difference between winning and losing.
