Online Poker Strategy SnG (1 of 7). How to win SnG (Sit and Go) Strategy Part 1

[johnnycheck99]

I always lose with AA KK QQ in 9-handed Sit and Go's!!!! Get overtaken every time. Is it best to ALWAYS raise with these premium hands? In any position?

[vybsga]

@johnnycheck99 You should NEVER limp. Always open raise, and bet your monster pairs for value.

@vybsga What you're saying is crap in low stakes...

[vybsga]

@mhtsos12 What I'm saying is that's how you play SnG in any stakes... ;)

[mhtsos12]

@vybsga I can't count the times some noob went all with nothing just because i called instead of raising...And I'm not talking about high blind situations,fishes do that kind of stuff for no reason i never said it makes sense i just said it works for me...Also al low stakes you find bigger gaps of skill,to take advantage of that you have to play more hands and see lots of cheap flops,limping is the best way to do that...

[vybsga]

@mhtsos12 I agree, it happens often. However, if you keep your tracker running, and see your opponent calling/folding/shoving tendencies etc... You can exploit him as long as you are paying attention and picking the right spots to shove. Take my advise.. Almost NEVER flat call, that's just thronging your chips away "hopping to get lucky". Most of the time the cards don't matter. Play your opponent in position, and calculate your fold equity when it comes down to a Cbet or C/R, etc.

thanks a lot man! nice work

[1skullduggery]

most tutorals preach a real t a g style in the opening stages. they claim theres no chips to be had coz the blinds are so low. but, really, that only applies in scenarios where a player, for example, raises 3x & everyone folds. the raiser took the 30 chips or whatever the blinds are. big deal .marginal. but what about if hes called or 3 bet. there can be some $ going in to the pot. ive made plenty of chips in the early rounds of s & g's. you dont wanna nit around or big brother will punish you.

Had a few smokes 1mpaler?

[vybsga]

@123Leigh123 The only way to play ;)

[cochisewolf]

Thanks for making and posting these videos. I'm just curious though. You don't seem to be listed on OPR or PokerProLabs(TopShark). In your vids your playing as 1Impaler, do you use a different name now? I can't imagine tha you would want to hide your stats.

thanks great videos

[arcandjj]

would you use the same play in med to high games?

[vybsga]

@arcandjj Funny you asked. Not only I would use the same play, I would strongly recommend it for higher stakes. The players at higher stakes are smarter, they have more money invested, and they understand the value of making it in the money. So when you are shoving against the blinds with four players left, the more advanced player would lay down hands like Broadways and such to your shove more ofter than the guy who only invested $1 or $10. Making it in the money is obviously the key.GL

[vybsga]

This was a $10 SnG.

[arcandjj]

what level of sit and go was this game low med or high?
