UTG Opening Range, Middle Stages of Torno

Im so used to my 6max cash opening ranges with 100bb...


Cheers

??? Just wondering what your logic behind opening tighter when there is more money in the pot is.

You should be tighter than your average from UTG anyway. While there's more in the pot after antes kick in, there are also more people still to act who can 3bet you off marginal hands, and a higher probability that when you do see the flop, it will be OOP.

That said, it's situational. For example, if your table is nitty, you can open up your range from all seats including UTG.

This doesn't even make sense why would we talk about our "average" opening range overall when we are UTG? It's pretty dumb to think about our "average" opening range in this way but whatever play tighter then "average" when there's more dead money in the pot.

Like your whole argument is just really retarded after reading it again. Like you say there's more money in the pot after antes kick in but there's more people who can 3b you. Why the fuck is their more ppl who can 3b you then normal after we've added antes to the pot? This doesn't make any sense. Like your whole post is designed to make it sound like I don't understand where the fuck UTG is. Then you go on to state another super obvious thing like the whole forum doesn't understand it already or something. If the table is tight we can open wider!!!11 HOLY SHIT BATMAN MY HEAD JUST ASPLODED WITH TEH KNOWLEDGE OVERLOAD.
