some general thoughts. alright, at this point of that mtt with 85bbs i was in mindset to try to play somewhat nitty and try to see as many hands as possible (this is a rush mtt, so quickfold works fine :D ). this is the first level with antes and i decided to play it like non-ante levels (with a lot of quickfolding). some general thoughts is that imo there is a lot of 3betting going on and definitely not only with premium hands because stacks are deep and there is a lot of room to play postflop.

preflop - i got 3bet, his stack is somewhat deep. yeah, he's 3-betting junk (not just pure trash, because of quick folding options, but somewhat suited connectors, 1-2 gappers, broadways and AX. at least imo he could be that wide here, also because i'm deep and can't call all 3 streets or give him action earlier without goods) somewhat a lot here. i'm not saying that i had any reads on my current opponent, but as i view this situation i suppose that almost any decent opponent will 3-bet wide here. so my initial read was that this is at least decent opponent :D, so i decided to set mine and called with my 33.

flop - this is one of the best case scenarios. and the question here is what do i want to do here? so as i described earlier my thoughts was that his 3betting range had large portion of junk. so there is not that much of a tough turns may come (8 out of 47 in the deck), but at least at T, Q, K, A i expected him to double barrel almost 100% of his range (probably on some any turns too). so the point here is that my goal was to get action from air :D that's why i called the flop.

turn - one of the worst cards in a deck (only 2s and 7s would be worse). yeah, there are a lot (at least in my opinion. may be this is an error) of both value hands and semibluffs, maybe even pure air bluffs in his range to bet that much on the turn. i don't want to ck-raise and get action, so i elected a passive line with some fullhouse potential.

river - is a tough one. somewhat blank-ish. if you look at my range from his perspective, you'll see that i can't have much here - the best case scenario is low-ish flush like T9s. so A-high flushes not playing ck-call, ck-call, ck (they'll act earlier or donk bets the river) because of a lot of hands he could check back here. so basicly the question is how good call here may be? i mean it looks like my 33's here is just a bluff-catcher, but near the top of my range, so it looks like i have to call here. or the amount of bluffs in his range is close to zero and i have to fold'em here? right now, on the river i've about average stack in mtt. calling here will cripple it a bit. so, i want you to share some of your thoughts with me guys. because i'm not a regular one in 216 mtts (playing mostly lowstakes and some midstakes) and don't know much about opponent ranges at these limits. and because of that i really confused: i don't know how much barreling will be on the turn with semi-bluffs, air and somewhat like AA's with a flush draw, also i don't know if AA without a flush draw will generally bet or ck back turn. and i definitely don't know how frequently players will 3-barrel bluff with somewhat like AKo with fd on the turn at high stakes.

so the other option is to ck-raise flop, but it'll fold all of his air. and i wanted him to have the widest range as possible (because of a lot of turn 2-nd barrel cards and not that many really scary cards for me).

please, let me know player ranges (in general) in spots like that. i also understand that at such a high limits there are not that many rush mtts, and i don't know how high-limit mtt regs will adjust their ranges (will they play tighter, or looser). but it'll be good to see some general thoughts here.

PS. hand converter feedback. it's not calculating ANTES in mtts, that's why i posted it without using it :D

pps. also it'll be nice to see some feedback from guys who plays mid to high stakes cash games, about player ranges in such a spot.

thanks!
cheers
