What I have noticed recently, is a lot of the `good` players seem to be happy putting their tourny life on the line with a draw, even if they are not getting the pot odds. (Only river to come, flush draw, pushing all in when they are getting 2:1, that kind of thing)
I suppose its a LAG strategy, in a way, but how do they do it???
Do they simply accept them may go out early or mid tourny, or, if they catch, they will change the game and become a strong contender?
I think this strategy seems to apply to all forms of poker.
Any thoughts or comments guys???
The next time someone pushes all in for 2:1 see if they have a low M, at that point people will push in with almost anything. If they are pushing in with medium sized stacks then they may feel they need to make a move now to have a shot at winning the tournament later.
