Topic: Tournament bet sizing Forum: Bonus Whores

Early in the tournament the blinds aren't very big and the relative chip value isn't that great so it makes sense to raise to 3x the bb, but in later stages of tournaments the blinds are larger relative to your overall stack and the value of each chip is higher so raising to 2-2.5x the bb accomplishes the same thing that a 3x bb raise previously did, but without the unnecessary risk and commitment.

Playing small pot poker also helps to make it more about skill than luck since you're actually playing hands instead of just getting it all in preflop due to pot commitment from a too large raise.
