    Played short stacked (the later stages of an MTT when most have 10-20BBs)

    Heads up play

    Omaha strategy (although Tikay has already started a thread on this)

    Taking notes on players - something I really struggle with, knowing what to write, what's too much detail and what's useless info, easy way to make quick decisions like Dohhhhh once said to me when I was playing 4NL, if someone open limps mark them down as Loose Passive straight away and wait for them to prove you wrong before changing it.

    I am in the top ten of both the main and mini with a shot at the jackpot.  Do i tighten up? loosen up? continue to nick blinds in position?  Go all in with raggy ace when TommyD opens for the umpteenth time in a row?

    Tips for 3betting in position either light or with proper hands and then how to play flops, which ones to cbet how much to cbet if you've hit or not and then what to do on various turns if you don't improve/do improve and also on rivers if it gets that far.

    Also normal cbets, when you've been raised and called (IP or OOP), what boards should you cbet 100% and what ones is it just bad to, also cbetting OOP, player to act behind 1-2, is it worth it and do boards need to be more advantagous to do so, how often to barrel turn and what cards to barrel (both IP and OOP), also taking free cards to hit draw good or better to bet with draw, then if called twice reasons to fire 3rd barrel against reasons to check behind and give up.

    Also this all applies to cash but similar discussion in how it plays out in a tourney with much shorter stacks would be helpful like how short can you be to 3bet shove over one raise and things like how many blinds do you need to raise fold late in MTTs.

    Table positions 6max & 10 Seaters "The Basics"

    Table positions 6max & 10 Seaters "Advanced"

    Covering everything from the meaning of table positions "UTG" etc to advance betting using table positions

    Its surprising how many players haven't got a clue what it means and how to use it.

    I think something along the lines of cash guidance for the mid stakes. Theres dohhs advice on nl4 and this i guess can be used for nl8 and 10 but making the transition to nl20/50 is alot harder. 

    Maybe someone starting a thread who grinds it and posting up hands etc to have the community comment and create a portfolio of tips and advice. 

    Just a thought.

    No you lose a race, get your $$$ in bad and bink then go out to some slow roll!

    When around the bubble should I open my play up a little try and bully the stacks that obv want to cash? (this is a given I assume) but what happens if you are card dead? Do you still try to steal? (or open pot, snap fold to raise a trick Solack taught me last night) How many times can you let the button open on your BB in a row without playing back at him?

    Some more excellent suggestions here. For Poker Abbreviations there is actually a thread I put together here for you.

    Do please keep the thoughts coming. All of the subjects included so far are in the opening post.

    To add on to the "C-betting" area, Guidance on when NOT to c-bet, eg I'm never really sure whether I should c-bet on a 3 of a suit flop.
