The first PokerStrategy.com MSS Video premiers today

After several strategy columns on the midstack strategy, it's time for the first video. Our producers Greyboy and Huckebein offer you an insight into playing MSS and what to look out for if you are switching to MSS from either the short stack or the big stack strategy.

Mindset and preflop play for advanced players

In this video greyboy and huckebein will introduce you to basic aspects of playing the MSS: Which player type is currently playing MSS and why? What is the difference if you are moving from short stack to midstack ? Is the midstack strategy suitable for players who have been playing BSS so far?

Furthermore our producers will present you two openraising charts: The standard ORC and a loose ORC which works especially well on very tight tables.

  • With how many Big Blinds do you buy in?
  • When is the right time to reload?
  • With how many Big Blinds do you leave the table?
  • To how many Big Blinds should I raise?
