Hello all....

I am new to the sight and love what I am reading on the message boards. I am fairly new to on-line NL Hold'em, but have been playing NL home ring games for quite some time now. Obviously I have found a lot of good information to help me become a better player on this site and on these message boards, but I am curious to know if I should do anything special, strategy wise, for this home NL tourney? There will be about 20 guys there at $100 buy in each. The payout is to the top 6 with some other things (such as bad beat jackpot, first 4 of a kind or straight flush) that will allow us a chance to win money. So with approximately a $2000 total pot...I would love to get a piece of it....and love to win it even more.

Alot of the guys are the guys I play with in the ring games and feel like I know how they play pretty well. Other people are "invites" by all of the regulars and I will have never played with them before. In this tourney the blinds will be doubled each hour until the tourney is won by someone.

Any advice or strategy you have would be greatly appreciated! Once again, I am glad I stumbled on this site and plan to be here often.
