SNG Strategy

Here are a couple of simple strategy reminders to follow. Some can perhaps look contradicting so write if there is something you don´t understand or that I should mention.
I´ll post more on a later time but I am short on time cause I am in Tallinn trying to win a EPT...one time!

* In every hand a preflop decision is made, learning and understanding this part is very important because almost everything is decided preflop in sngs.
* Learn this and you will be ahead of most of your oppnents.
* When the blindlevels are low we raise 3xbb but once they have increased to let say 25-50 we rasie 2xbb - 2.5xbb.
* When the big blind hits 100 you can start to minraise but expect a lot of calls and more postflop play.
* Using the holdemmanager and the hud will quickly collect hands and get knowledge of our opponents.
* Steal as much as we get away with but dont just steal with junk if the guy of course isn´t autofolding, steal with hands that got some value.
* If the bb calls alot dont minraise, just raise good hands if you arent comfortable playing postflop.
* Many people get scared and slows down on the turn
* Many use potcontrol and checks to much on the turn.
* If someone has called your cbet on the flop and you got something of value bet again.
* If we get raised on the turn by a fish or a regular just fold beacuse they probably got the nuts.
* Very few people raise you light on the turn.
* Checkraised on the river just fold as its usually the nuts.
* Usually go with top pair god kicker on the flop, play for stacks. At least at these levels.
* If a oppnent on these levels go all in for 1500 when the blinds are 10-20 or 15-30 call with 99+ AJs+. If they just open push that is.
* A good samplesize of hands is 1000, when consulting the hud.
* Remember the variance dont get upset if you lose 20 sngs in a row, that is standard when playing a lot of tables.
* Try to play at least 10 sngs at a time as the tactics is simple.

Thought process from the bb is something like this:

Look at our stack? is it under 10 bb? yes no?

Look at our hand is it good enough to push all in with? yes no?

Compare it to our oppnents pfr position stat is he stealing a lot? yes no?

Is he folding enough to a 3bet all in ? yes no?

Can I just call his raise? again look at his Steal % and decide.

Ask yourself these questions and you will know what to do!
