Raising Ranges early in STT's

[Matixboy]

A lot of people use the tight early strategy early in 9-man turbos

In early to middle position early in a 9-man turbo what ranges are you raising with?

In late position early in a 9-man turbo what ranges are you raising with?

No limps in front keep in mind.

I already know what I do in these situations but just wanted to see what other players were doing

EP early stages - 99+, AQ+
LP early stages - 77+, AT+

obv. it varies a bit sometimes, but thats generally the hand selection I find myself using in the early stages of 9-man turbos

^^ pretty close for me too but if im on the button or cutoff, sometimes ill up the aggression slightly earlier and raise stuff like KJ,QJs

something I've never asked you andy, would you muck 88 from EP then?

I almost never raise 99 and TT from early position, because I play then for set value except at late game or with great position. I most of the time I limp, trying to invite other players to also limp. Sometimes I also don't raise AQo OOP.

It also depends a lot on table conditions. In some juicy games I play tighter knowing that most of the time I find myself in the bubble with a reasonable stack, without having to move before.

From late position my range is probably close to Acid Hound's. But hands like KJ and QJs I would play on the button, but prob not on the CO.

Yea, KQ,KQ,QJs I'll play from LP too, left that out.

Sometimes I'll muck 88, sometimes I'll raise, sometimes I'll limp UTG.....depends how I feel
