    Default How can I possibly win?

    With micro limit tournaments on PP and Pokerstars reaching over 1,500 people consistently, how can I win? I am consistently making the right decision but when I go all in with the best hand and get called by 2 players constantly, the odds are eventually bound to knock me out of the tournament.

    I have AA post-flop with a Q 9 3 board with 2 hearts, i push all in and get called by a guy with 4 Hearts and another guy with a straight draw.... Earlier i get called by a guy with A5 suited even tho im all in pre flop...

    I just don't understand how to win these tournaments going up against players that just call with everything.

    What should I do?

    Would you rather play against great players who will never pay you off when you have a good hand?

    winning a MTT tounament takes a great deal of luck. You should be happy that people make these kind of moves.

    I just play extremely tight in the beginning of the tour. Dont get sucked in to playing crap hands because everyone else does. Just hang in there.

    I have made several final tables in these 1$ ( 2500 participants ) on pokerroom. I think its about the same as the ones on stars.

    Yes or just push preflop with good starting hands early (Like AA-KK-QQ), because some fish will always call you if its early in a tourney
    Nobody dies a virgin, the river screws us!!!!
