Hi Gusma, nice one!
About the last hand A9, would you make that call if that was the first hand in the Ft?
You said something interesting: the chips saved worth more than the ones gained. Would that spot be the case? Conserve the stack in a close spot?
Thanks in advance :D

hey mate!
Considering ICM that's definetely a fold, even on the semi ft. I decide to play it as a cEV spot as the field was kind of tough and considering FGS, gainning those extra chips I would have a better chance of winning it.

Pedro, at min 18, why dont you play in call, hands connected and yes try to raise some gap hands in SB like 84o, 95o....
you are ofp, and 1in chips, you have inteded a lot ofp against his range adv in BB 4.5.6. and he pays your raise, your flop, your turn in very dry board, so he has all Axo, 2pairs, sequ,etc
Nice Video Thanks a Lot To share and GL brother

I have a mixed strategy when playing that deep in bvb, it will generally depend on my opponent's stats.
Regards to the pos-flop, I ahve 9 high and block some str8s, and as be betting I can attack some 6/5x I guess bluffing will be fine.

hey mate thanks for your nice content again :)
11:50 against a shot in SB potentially shoving. What would be your open / call range here, if you are 25BB and if you are like 35 40 BB . I imagine it will not be the same that the one you gave me for bvb play as ICM is involved much more and we do have to conserve our stack much more.

Will you have any kind of open fold range?

I really struggle to know sometimes when I am deep in top twenty to know what to open / call / fold which is the base to win tournaments ! Great content and looking forward to the strategy in the final table

hey mate!
You are right, there's ICM involved but you do not necessarily need to take it to the letter, so my range would be something in between a ICM range and a cEV one, around this (up to 50bb, callign wider with deeper stacks):

44+, A5s+, A8o+, KTs+, QJs, KQo
