Poker Pro Bond18 Shares MTT Stack Size Strategies

The article is a translation of a series of articles by known MTT player and 2+2 forum moderator, Tony “Bond18” Dunstan. The author regularly sees the same mistakes in low buy-in MTT discussions on forums. With 10 big blinds (BB) or less, you should generally push all-in with any hand you plan to play. With 14-21 BB, you should not usually raise with hands that cannot call a 3-bet. With 22-30 BB, you have more room for opening raises but this stack size is too large for all-in restands in most cases. With 30-40 BB, many players try to restand with this stack size pre-flop. With more than 40 BB, you have a full arsenal of maneuvers at your disposal.
