Sit and go tactics

[ITMguy]

I have found this at some poker website (i cant remember where) and i copied it to my pc. And now i want to share it with you. It really helps to win SNG:


10 - 8 PLAYERS LEFT:

STRATEGY: If you receive a MONSTER HAND like AA, KK, or QQ, go ALL-IN without even considering. Hopefully, some "lucky" player calls you and you'll double your money if nothing dramatically happens. Play aggressively and WIN!

The other cards you should play are pocket pairs, and suited connectors, and Ace-X suited. Don't jump on to the table with other hands. This way you will only waste your money.

7 - 5 PLAYERS LEFT

Follow the previous strategy and play only GREAT HANDS. When the blinds go up, stop playing suieted connectors and low pocket hands unless you have a big lead. Your every action should be RAISE or FOLD. NEVER, i reapeat, NEVER CALL.

5 - 4 PLAYERS LEFT

Now you are pretty close to the phase when payouts begin. Now, more and more players will start playing tighter to in hopes of a payout. The blinds should be reasonably high at this point so use your positioning and tight table image to steal the blinds.

Try to jump on low-stacked players when they're in the blinds and double the blinds. They will call you only if they have a good hand. So, be smart and play your positioning.

3 PLAYERS LEFT

You are already in the money, so now it's time for some aggressive poker. Remember, your goal is the FIRST PLACE, NOT SECOND. The difference between second and third place is very small, so always aim for the top. Be very AGGRESSIVE and use your positioning to steal blinds from your opponents. Don't be afraid to risk your chips, you're are already in the the money and now you're aiming for the TOP place.

2 PLAYERS LEFT

I hope that you are the chip leader by now. If so, be super aggressive double the blinds EVERY HAND. If your opponent is very short stacked, go All-in each time.

If you're short stacked, go all-in with pocket pairs, painted hands, and ACE-X suited. If the blinds are very high and you must make a move, go all-in with any hand with an ACE or connectors.
