A few pointers:
Try not to play turbo/speed sit&go's. Blind level-up should be at least 10 min.
Early stage:
Really try to avoid AJ or lower if they are not suited. AJ looks strong, since J is a face card... but you will lose way more than win with that hand. Ultra aggressive play with AA, KK, QQ, depending on position with AK. Limp with A-x suited and all other low pairs and limp with suited connectors when in good position. Limp with AK when you play total donks.
Ultra aggressive with AA, KK, QQ, big bet (blinds 20/40) around 300-500 pre-flop. If you get raised all-in with one guy going for it call, if there is more then one guy call only with AA. If you get called and there is no scare card or no draw on the board, play normally after the flop. With a scare card on board (A when you have QQ, KK) force yourself to fold if the guy bets. Donks call with A-anything and you better believe they have it.
When you hit the flop and you are pretty sure this is the strongest hand on the board, but there is a possible draw. Push all-in. Punish the chasers. Let them risk all their money on their draws. Yes you will lose some, that is luck, but you will win much more of them - and that will be donk putting all his chips in on a draw.  |
