HOW TO PLAY SIT N GOS

Sit n gos are mini tournaments and can be profitable if you play them right. I advise anyone who plays sngs to read Scott Fischman's An Online Ace,as this book has a great section on sngs.
Basically you play them very tight to start with,only limping in with small,medium pairs in the hope of flopping a set,if you dont they are an easy fold.Raising 5 times the blind with your big hands..aces,kings queens, jacks and ace king,but the object early on is survival. You also limp with suited aces in the hope of flopping a flush or atleast getting a cheap draw to one and thats it. These are the only hands you are playing early on.Consider yourself short stacked(which you will be alot of the time) when you have 8 big blinds or less and at this stage you are ALL IN,hoping to steal the blinds or double up.When there are 4 players left(bubble time) you are ALL IN or fold,you will bubble alot but win more this way to as your aim is to have a massive chip lead by the time the bubble bursts and win the tournament.Thats it BASICALLY but read the book and learn the finer points,its worth it.
