Refining my strategy; have read many strategies !!
Bet small untill the last few hands
Bet big and go for it
Bet the opposite of everyone else
Bet conservative if ahead, bet aggressive if behind
How about betting in accordance to your bankroll ? Assuring that you will at least make it untill the last hand of the round
Also what are some of the most common BS strategy deviations in tournament play ?
Any advice from a seasoned tournament player would be greatly appreciated !!
Happy Holidays !! May all your aces have faces !!

Most BJ tourneys are set up so players bet on a rotating basis. I.E. You bet in sequence, once you bet, you can't change it, and who bets first changes every hand. Therefore...
>> Bet the opposite of everyone else
You won't be about to use that strategy too often.
Remember that, unlike regular BJ, the goal is to beat other players, not to beat the house. And you have a limited number of hands to do it. Therefore, some strategy adjustment are required. For example, you might want to split tens in some situations.
The specific format will also dictate strategies. For example, sometimes the winner of the table advances to the next round, but usually it's the top scores from all tables in the first round.
