sit n go's are a different kinda animal. Not a mtt, it takes a different approach... bunch a coin flippers needs a different outlook. It's a game of pickin spots, not really makin moves.. Maybe I'm wrong... comments?

that is 1 table sng's btw
i think it is important to try and get over the average early on especially in turbos for example in the bcp turbo sngs i have been playing u start with 1500 and i make a point to try and steal the blinds and get up to at least 2k in the first two orbits that way u are able to sit back and wait for ur hand. the 1 hand per hour rule really doesnt work in the bcp sng format.
you are correct. gotta pick spots but if you notice on bcp you play the same players over n over all day. i take lots of notes and catch their routines
You still see coin flippers in these though. Really sucks if they hit cause they will keep doing it LOL but as said you have to pick your spots and play it hard or with caution
Good post.Quote:

Those are mostly turbos. There are some sngs that have 45 players.
sit and go is my favorite. head to head is the best way to play
Them are the ones i like playing, you got time to sit back and wait on a good hand before getting involved with the donkeysQuote:

The only downside to the sng's nowadays is they are mostly turbo variations of the game. Not necessarily a bad thing but your game play is definitely different when playn a sng versus a mtt tourney. Once you have a feel for the table and the playn style of those around you then that's all you need. Good luck on those felts.
play tight early on! That is key esp in turbo sngs.....don't bust early on and then start playing after about 3 levels
Agreed on the need to be patient, but don't sleepwalk through the early levels.
yeah i prefer turbos my self. i def. have learned that tight is right in the early stages. that's something i didn't do when i first started out playing.
Come n get it ;) I'm just chillin over here sng don champ of Po hands down..Anyone come at me Plz..Merry ChristmasQuote:

putting someone also all in for portion always beter than calling yourself allin...
I kinda agree with this. You need to be able to act fast but then also pick your spots.Quote:

I see what you're playing but in a mtt sng that is also turbo, you just can't wait around that long - the blinds increase every 5 min (most clients), and so in about 20 minutes, you're already sitting at about 10 BBs or lessQuote:
