In this episode, MTT Coach Gareth James and Mental Game Trainer Dr. Tricia Cardner tackle questions regarding how wide you should call shoves at a final table when you have a medium stack. Gareth explains that it is critical to react correctly to big stack shoves when there are small stacks on the table. It would be a disaster if you busted with a 25 bb stack when there are sub-20bb stacks on the table. He outlined the top-down approach that he uses to make these decisions while at the table.
Dr. Tricia then answers a question regarding the pregame warmup. She shares a 4 step process that you can use to design a personalized warmup routine. You can also use this routine anytime you feel out of sorts at the table. If you want to maintain a focused, calm demeanor, then take the time to map out your own warmup.
