Hi everyone, i need some help with fast raising blinds, so i was playing at a tournament in a bar for the first time, there is no buy in but you do win sweet prizes and stuff so the people take it seriously, 4 tables of 8. anyway last thursday was the first time i was there and had played with people that weren't my friends. anyway the starting chips were about 3000 and the blinds started and 25/50 and raised every 13 minutes,
25/50, 50/100, 100/200, anyway by the time the blinds raise the first time we had only played 7 hands, so probably about 14-16 hands at the second level, anyway i was wondering if someone could help me with the correct way to play with the blinds raising relatively fast compared to what i'm used to, any info would be great, like when to raise preflop, how aggressive should i be?
thank you

With blinds going that fast you really have to pick your spots. I'd prolly play this tourny super-aggresive. Lots of raises from late position to try and steal the blinds + any limpers. Once the blinds get to the 3rd or 4th level, it would be time to play push / fold.
