    I've read various post/thread responses that mention something regarding having solid fundamentals. Like, such and such is a great player or coach because he has solid fundamentals, etc. But I have yet to come across much on the topic of what are considered to be the fundamentals for playing NLH, MTTs in particular. What do u consider to be the fundamentals of NLH MTTs?

    Read these, digest put into practice and you be ahead of 90% of low stakes toruney players.
    You'll get all the fundementals and get used to how to think through a hand, what factors are important to consider and what is mathemaically(without any complex math) correct in many situations and Why.
    Also having a Reason for each decision you make.
    e.g. Rather than just making a bet on the river cos you have the nuts, you think through and make an optimal decision for how much to bet based on likelihood of being called by your opponents range

    Where you go from there you'll need more than harrginton but i guess thats for your next post about advancing further in future....
