So sunday which means the week almost has past and it's review time for my first week playing in the new year.
It also means strategy content. The content is thoughts of my own mixed with strategy sites advice + forum advice. It's very basic stuff, and it relates to micro stakes. You can take what you can use and throw the rest away, maybe you knew it all already, but some might learn something.
Feel free to comment, and I'm up for discussion - Cause I'm definently ain't playing these perfect.
I'll do week review tonight after session. 
Strategy content week 1
90 man K.O strategy micro stakes 6.5 and 3.3
Structure.
3000 start chips, 15/30 start lvl, 5 min lvl - but small increasements
The double stack turbo structure is slower than stars and allow for more play in early game with rather deep stacks. This means more set mining, playing suited connectors and suited aces - try to play in position. If you want to take advantage of weak players early on you can open a lot more from HJ, CO and BU with deeper stacks as it allows you to manouvre more - but be carefull not to pull the big all-in bluff gun trigger, cause in these weak fields with a bounty people will call you down light - this also means you can value (over)bet more often. More on this later.
Payout structure.
Top 9 is paid but only top 3 really matters where you get 28.8 BI for 1st (1st in 6.5$ is 144 and we pay 5$ into tourney pool), 17.55 for 2nd and 12.6 for 3rd. Because of top heavy payout structure we need to focus on accumulating chips and going for the win, this means we don't fold our way into the money with a short stack. It means restealing and shoving a lot in late game and take advantage of others fear of bubbling. But we will get back to this in second part.
KO effect, and our adjustments.
We need to adjust, not so much to the fact that there is a bounty involved, but the fact that fishies are over adjusting and going for the bounty with less than mediocre hands. When a shorty is all-in people are iso raising with Ax to get the bounty - Note that if people just calls they could be trapping (regs will do this).
Our shoves will be called more often both pre and post flop. This means you can value overbet shove river and expect people (who have you covered) to try and talk themself into calling cause of the bounty - don't get out of line with overbets, best strategy would still be to get all-in normal value bet style.
Our pre shoves will get called more often by pretty cards (suited connectors and small pockets and random broadway+x and low Ax). This means we can shove more for value than for FE. This means we need to tighten up and lose the buttom of our range – But don't get to tight, cause Ax is often ahead.
Early game strategy.
Tag style playing is allways gonna work cause of the many fishies, but trying a looser approach to take advantage of the fish going broke to light might be even more profitable. Try to loosen up from late position and play more suited connectors and gappers.
Value betting: Cause people will call lighter due to bounty you can make more thin value shoves if they have you covered – reverse applies don't bluff people that have you covered. When value betting you can overbet, but a better strategy is to get the stacks in without so they feel more comitted. Starting with 4x instead of 3x allows you to get the 100bb stacks easier in, and people at micros will call 4x as much as 3x. So 4x the first blind lvl and 3.5x or 3x second lvl, and at 40/80 lvl I'll 2.65x to 212 chips and keep my open raise around 2.5x and late game maybe lower it.
Another thing about bet sizing is iso raising, you can iso bigger than you normal would cause people will call so iso'ing one limp at first lvl (15/30) you can iso to 150 and be almost as succesfull as you would be with 120 iso.
Money makers early on: Set mining, value betting them to death and making correct calls vs big stack pushes/iso shoves (50+bb stacks).
Regs will push something like QQ-99 and AQs+ AQo+ which means we can call with something like TT+ and AK. BUT if it's an unknown/fish the range is something like QQ-55, ATs+, ATo+, KJs+, KQo and some random suited broadways and connectors which means we can call wider and expect to be profitable - something like 88+, AJs+ and AQo+
These ranges are conservative and putting the fishies on a range is very hard and read dependent, but some fishies are much looser - especially when iso shoving.
Also some regs are only shoving TT, JJ and AK which makes them really exploitable, cause you can take these hands out of their normal range when playing against them.
Middle and late stage will follow next week.
Take care guys. 
BUT I figured I could bring labtop and monitor on trip so that I can put in some games these next couple of days. And when I come home saturday I'll grind until monday morning or something sick. ;D
