Sit n Go Pointers

G'Day Mates
It's so simple...And so obvious...Yet no one seems to get it! What's this easy-to-use secret for beating Sit and Go tournaments online? The answer is this: ..............PATIENCE! I know... I know... you were expecting something more, um... "secretive". But the truth is, winning at Sit and Go's is pretty damn easy. And that's why every time I turn on the computer these days I feel like a kid in a candy store... ready to clean out the amateurs at the poker room of my choosing.
What I want to discuss here is why PATIENCE is so critical for Sit and Go success. First, let's get back to some basics. There are four types of poker playing styles:
1. Tight-Passive
2. Tight-Aggressive
3. Loose-Passive
4. Loose-Aggressive Your style should be tight-aggressive.
Don't confuse "styles" with "preferences". If you want to be a good card player, you DON'T get to DECIDE to be tight-aggressive. You MUST be tight-aggressive in order to be really good.
Of course there are DEGREES of each playing style, and that's what accounts for the differences between one pro and another... the DIFFERENT DEGREES of tight-aggressive.

OK Back to Poker

G'Day Mates

The hustle and bustle of Christmas day is over now, and I hope everyone had a great Family time! So, Now its back to poker playing.
Over the last 2 days I have played in 4 SNG Tournys and have placed in the money at 3 of them- so thats 75% win ratio! Not too Bad aye! mates? As I have said before and I will say it over and over, the only way to play SNG Tournys is to play tight and choose your starting hand wisely until all the other "Loose & Impatient" players kill each other!
When I am impatient (and I really shouldnt even be playing in the Game) I will always lose! Sometimes I am really too busy to be playing and not really paying much attention to the game and I dont even follow my own SNG Tactics! I will lose just like everyone else! Because I have NO BUSINESS playing the Game unless I play to win.
We have talked a little about starting hands and I will continue to give you my Opinion on starting hands for SNG Tournys! I now have the time to update this Blog daily (so things should get back to normal) I only play a few selected starting hands until I am in the money! Which normally doesnt take too long because like I said before, Players that play SNG tournys are IMPATIENT LOOSE PLAYERS that you should be taking advantage of and taking their money! Wheter its a 10 cent SNG or a $20 SNG you should be having a win percentage of at least 60%

Cheers Mates........Lets get back to POKER for 2007
