Sit N Go poker tourneys are very exciting. Strategy is key. Unless you have a monster hand that you will go all the way with, you want to try to keep the pots small. Mid pairs are a good case in point. From under the gun, or even 2nd or 3rd to act, its very easy to get punished.
In SNGs a lot of players waste too many chips early with hands like small pocket pairs. However, these can be raised and make big profits in cash games. The way a single table event works, makes it better to play these hands in small preflop pots. You seldomly will hit your set post flop and it wont cost you too many chips.
As the blinds get big in relation to your stack, you need to play aggressively. Whenever you can, you must try to steal the blinds. These tourneys become a game of chicken, steals, and resteals. If you dont get involved, you will find yourself with too small of a stack. You might get called and knocked out even when you finally get a good starting hand.
When the blinds get real big compared to your stack, your two choices are to push all in or fold. You can make a normal raise if you want to, but you should be planning to put all your chips in.. You really cant afford to bet and then fold.
When players are folding, you can go all in with more hands expecting to get no callers. How many chips youre up against is important also. The big (has enough chips to risk) and small (desperate and looking for a spot) stacks will call more often. The middle sized stack folds more, protecting their chips.
When youre on the bubble, your play is determined a lot by stack sizes. For example, you might push all in to try to knock out a short stack. You could fold the same hand pre-flop to the big stack to save chips also. Naturally, you would have to fold to a big raise.
In this situation, youre usually looking to push all in, but you cards arent the only factor. Often you will want to go all in with any hand, if your stack threatens everyone enough. If someone your betting at has a lot of chips, he will call you more often, so you need better cards.
When you have a big stack late in the tournament, you should be stealing the blinds often. This is best done against the medium stacks. They will feel its too expensive to play against you and risk getting knocked out.
The problem here is you want to get to the money before losing your stack. The monster stack will knock you out, while the shorties will gamble with anything to survive. This is not an easy place to be in.
This involves learning which move is better in different situations. Do you go all in or forld? One part of the formula is predicting what your opponents will call you with. When that decision is made, its push or wait.
So these are most of the basics specifically for the SNG games. You could write an entire article on each of these ideas. Develop your knowledge and skills in these areas, and maybe you will be beating the Sit N Gos. Happy hunting.
