WKC final day

[LeSanta]

What do you think is a normal stack size for this game 38BB? Or should I try to build up a bigger one?

[Larael]

Try build up to a bigger one

Right 

[LeSanta]

Як ви думаєте, який стек був би зручним?

[ashssa53]

38BB is solid but I'd try to get it up to like 50-60 if you can, gives you way more room to play postflop without panicking fr.

[vaelvi1]

Yeah 38 is workable but 50-60 gives you way more breathing room postflop, you won't be sweating every hand ngl.

[LeSanta]

Yeah, I agree with that.

I played in the very first qualifier, where they gave out 5 bb—it was hard to hang in there.🙄

[Doseys]

38BB is fine to hang in there but you'll feel way more comfortable if you can chip up to 50-60, less pressure on every decision

[LeSanta]

Thank you for your reply

Did anyone make it to the final day? What is your stack size?

If so, tell me how difficult it was for you.

[strikeax]

38BB isn't terrible but if you can chip up a bit without forcing it, do it. short stack poker is a grind and one bad beat can end you, so I'd rather have some cushion going into the final day.

[Sandon95]

38BB is workable but tbh you'll be on edge the whole time, try to find a spot to chip up to 50-60 without punting.

[LeSanta]

Why are the comments all so similar? WTF

[emberesse487]

Tbh I think the comments sound similar 'cause 38BB is just that awkward middle zone—it's playable but not comfy, so everyone gives the same advice.

[kovalyn]

Yeah 38BB is that weird stack where you're not desperate but one flip gone wrong and you're suddenly in shove-fold mode, definitely try to find a spot to chip up if it comes naturally.

[LeSanta]

Але якщо подивитися на таблицю, середній стек насправді буде десь близько 40–50.

[kim4671x8kg]

38BB is decent but if you can bump it up to 50+, you'll have more flexibility in your plays, no cap ?

[rexkyxwcyu3]

both teams solid

[voxienne]

depends on the blind level, 38 migt be tighter than it looks

[Wickkani1]

that 38BB stack feels super table dependant tbh

[LeSanta]

I agree—it depends on who I end up with

[blackoutter]

38bb is fine tbh but if teh spots are there i'd def wanna get closer to 50, way less stress postflop fr ?

[ryorscnxr4w]

38bb is decent tbh but if spots are there i'd def try spin it to 50+ for more room bro ?

[Vorlyn]

I would not be happy settling at 38BB on a final day honestly, you just get pushed around way too much when the blinds ramp up. I would much rather take a few calculated shots early to get up to 50 or 60BB where you actually have some fold equity and can breathe a bit.

[thoxique585]

38bb is livable but if you catch a few rounds of trash cards it suddenly looks like 22bb and you cant move anyone. i wouldnt force anything but if a good spot opens up early i'd try to bump it closer to 45 50 so you dont just get blinded into desperation mode later.

[Emberast]

I once bubbled a Sunday final day sitting on 41BB because I folded too many playable hands waiting for aces.

[LeSanta]

Unfortunately, aces don't guarantee a win—they're just a strong hand preflop.

You have to assess the situation and wait for the big blinds so you don't waste your chips.
