Antes in satellites
Hi Dara,
I really enjoyed your book and also your $25k satellite review. I’ve been having a lot of success in the local live satellite scene since.
Just a question about antes and preflop opening ranges in satellites if you don’t mind.
Most live satellites I’ve played have not had antes but an upcoming satellite for a live $10k will introduce them after the first few levels.
Since doing an Upswing MTT course a few years ago I’ve always used a tighter preflop range for the pre ante levels than for the later levels with antes in standard MTTs. This tight range has served me well so far in live satellites with no antes.
Should this concept (ie open wider with antes) also apply to opening ranges in a live satellite when antes are introduced (presumably to a lesser extent if at all) or does stack preservation and ‘tight is right’ still win out?
I would appreciate any insights.
