    Default SnG strategy

    I was in a NL $10+1 SnG the other day and this guy called 2 peoples all in preflop with 79s, obviously he won the hand and was then sitting pretty being the huge stack, bullying people and showing shity hands, he called again a bit later with 56o and hit 2 pair as well to take another person out.

    I know this won't happen everytime but is this a good strategy early on? Either your out of the tournement quick and can get into another one (save waisting half houor to come 4th) but if you double or even tripple up then you have a good chance of going on to win it.

    I'm a very happy man if my opponents uses this "strategy". Tight in the beginning and looser as the blinds go up is the way to go in a Sit and Go.

    These guys are very frustrating when they beat you (I put it all in on a 3rd reraise to a guy who was doing that the whole SNG . . . Had AQ, he called with Q2s and flops the fucking flush to bust me. . . .)

    But it's actually very easy to beat them. Just make sure to make big raises at them when they're late to act . . .

    Even open raise all in with AA/KK/QQ if they that maniaical. . . .

    Jason75: Darn, I was really hoping for canasta. Maybe Gin.

    Well its obviously rigged. That guy must have been on THE LIST for that site.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.
