Im not winning player yet, but i feel my time will come. I have tried new playing technique LAG and it seems much better for me when most players are playing tight and 3x betting preflop and half betting on the flop seems to work well. I try to play alot of hands lets say 20%. and i have noticed that for me hands like 89s, 79s, T9o, TJo etc.. they are much easier to fold if you dont hit the board and you dont end up losing too much. Usually i am more calm when playing 8Ts than AK. And sometimes they make good combinations. Usually hands that throw me out from a tournament are KK,QQ,JJ,AK,AQ,AJ
but my problems come when we are closing to price money middle stages. I like to three bet alot preflop and half bet flop, but almost everytime middle stages start people start to play more aggressively. When i 3x bet someone with a smaller stack go all in or someone else re raise and i end up folding and my blind steals are not working anymore. I am confused about my game, if poker gods dont give me cards i am starting to lose my stack middle stages with my beautiful meadium strenght hands. Should i tighten up my game? All the forums say you should open up and be brave. Of course depends on the table but online your table changes all the time and usually there is people who are short stacked who are playing tight and few aggressive players with medium to big stack who usually makes table uncomfortable.
How should i approach to this problem? And if someone has tips for playing hands above i mentioned that end up my tournaments i would appreciate.
