Can some of you please share your bet sizes for early, middle, and late stage play? I just want to make sure that I’m not betting too little/too much.

In SNGs, I usually start off with 3x bets preflop during the early stages (up to 50-100 blinds), then 2x bets preflop once the blinds start hitting 100-200. What’s the general consensus for mtts?

I think the general consensus is that the deeper you get in an MTT the smaller you can make your opens and 3 bets. Usually the first few levels of an MTT the pros are raising 3x and once the antes kick in and possibly before then, they make their opens smaller like 2.5x or 2.2x or even a min-raise.

 

hope this helps

cheers

you should lower your opening raise as antes come in and as your stack dwindles.  ie. with  a 8000 stack @ 50/100 i would open to 300 normally, however with 3000 chips I may open to 233.

shouldn’t go above 2.5x normally with antes in unless super deep stacks.
