In this webinar, I am going to give you 3 Lessons to Crush Small Stakes Tournaments!
Lesson #1: Defend your big blind often!
Many players play way too tightly from the big blind. Understand that as your stack gets shorter, you will realize your equity much better. This should lead you to defend very often from the big blind, especially with short stacks.
Lesson #2: Play well with short stacks!
With short stacks, you have the ability to implement 2 very nice strategies: re-jam often and slow-play your nutted hands!
Lesson #3: Increase aggression when you can put your opponent’s stack at risk.
Naturally, you will have less fold equity early in a tournament, especially during the rebuy period. As you get deeper, many players will tighten up and this allows you to really increase your aggression and exploit their tight tendencies.

I like your videos, Jonathan, but you're missing something huge. In the small weekly buyin tourneys, say 100.00 to 300.00 it's very rare that you see a raise in the range of 2.2 to 2.0. It's just not happening, its never the case, at least until it gets in the middle to late stages of a tourney. Level 1 through 8ish, its more like 3X to even as much as 9 and 10X and average probably more like 3 to 4X.. Im not saying they should do that, but it is what is happening.
It would be easier to study the charts if the colors for the actions remained the same. In some charts a shove is green, while in others a shove is red. For visual learners, this takes some adjustment. Why not always shove green, always 3bet red, always call blue? Thanks for all you do. Congrats on the GPI award. I voted for you.
I was wondering why the stack size changed? It would be a lot easier to have a better perspective if the stacks were the same. Having different stack sizes just increases the variables now that need to be considered.
Great video, thanks for sharing. I have just one question. At 31:00 if you really have a hand on this spot why that you will give him the opportunity to buy the river so chip (1 to 4) is not better to raise 60-75% of the pot and take the money there? If he call and miss you can steal jam and take the pot.
Calling with 2s and 3s for 15bb seems very odd… I mean they have to be shove or fold you'd think..
the way you played aces from CO is exactly the way old guys in Manila are playing (and are live poker players for decades)
question: why would you defend BB junky hands out of position?
Hey Jonathan thanks for all the work you share for free. I got a question for the hand at 18:56:
What if I noticed that my opponent is overcalling and might be doing so with Kx or even 8x –
would it be better to go 1 big barell at flop or river or not even bluff at all?
I I don’t believe how much leaks I had man wow
Watched this vid yesterday next tournament I played I finished 5th out of 771 players in small stake tourney
