what do you think

[Hunter]

I just wanted to get some opinions on pre-flop raising in tournaments,If raising 2 1/2 the big blind or 3x witch do people think is better and why

[bsam]

Depends on what you have Id say what position your in how many people are on the table and in the tourney. But i think either Q's on up is a good bet though what do u think? What would you do.

[Hunter]

I think it really matter the position, it lets you play more hands that you might not have,and sometimes I win the blinds and a extra bet with risking less money

[HopsBar28]

You really want feedback on the difference between 2.5 and 3 bbs? There's really no diff, except maybe a minor psychological one against newbies.

[Pray4Spades]

2.5x is better because it's going to accomplish the same thing, just save you money if you a 3bet.

[lorenz0wns]

its all dependent on tbl/player dynamics. sometimes ppl react differently if u change ur preflop sizing.

[Hunter]

well I have been trying it in the last couple of tournaments that I have played and using the 2.5x raise seems to work better. I found I can raise sometimes with pure garbage and fire a continuation bet and take down the pot. and when I get called I could stop and lose the minimum
