hi guys so early game I’m fine get a good stack above average with the blinds and antes with my hand ranges from different spots sometimes I will lose a flip that happens I know that. I’ll get my money in good and just get lucked out on ?.

mid game blinds shoot up near the money bubble and this is were I think my game is severely lacking with the blinds and antes and my ranges I have them all in poker cruncher app on my phone sometimes I won’t play a hand for 4 orbits because I don’t hit my ranges in the spots or I’ll fold to some one who raises early position and I’m in late position with half decent hand which I would be opening in this spot but don’t. It’s hard to get a read on people when I’m always changing tables so a lot of the time I’ll be folding.

what would anyone suggest in these spots ? I thought about widening my range but sometimes I’m on 10bbs I also use snapshove on my phone to get a idea what I should be calling with or shoving with I play micro mtts on stars. Sorry for the story time ??? I just started pokeruniversity on mid game play but I’d like to hear anyone’s output ty.

I think you’ve at least partially answered your own question. If you’re going down to 10bbs frequently then there isn’t much you can do there except play good push-fold, but the reason you’re chipping down so frequently is through lack of aggression, and probably through being a little inflexible with your ranges.

At a certain point it will be necessary to step outside of adopting static ranges and start being more adaptive. If you’re struggling in the mid-game, then I think that point has arrived.
