Patrick Leonard Shares Insights on MTT Poker Strategies and Psychological Aspects


Patrick Leonard, a seasoned poker player, shares his unique approach to analyzing complex poker spots. He categorizes them into folders such as preflop, ICM, PSKO, and more, which helps him focus on specific areas that need improvement.

When it comes to late-stage tournament play, Leonard advises against deviating from HRC recommendations except in spots where HRC evaluates EV at +0.01. He believes that in such situations, the small edge is not worth the risk, especially with a short stack.

For beginners, Leonard recommends focusing on MTTs due to their popularity and growth. He also suggests using materials from Elliot Roe and other resources to improve poker psychology. Leonard mentions that the main enemies of online poker are regulators and officials who fragment the field by countries. Additionally, he left BitB due to moral reasons, stating he no longer wanted to support certain sites.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
