In many Medium Stakes SnGs, players no longer play loose but
weak-tight, at least as soon as the number of participants
drops below 6. The optimal way to take advantage of this is to use
the loose-aggressive approach.
The basic idea in this approach is: You
attack many small pots with a good risk-reward ratio and stay away
from resistance and big pots. As weak-tight bubbles usually take
quite some time, it's not enough to always steal the blinds with the
same move. Instead you should have a sizable repertoire of blind
steals to make it as difficult as possible for the opponents to adapt
their strategies.
This article lists up the different kinds of
these steals and explains when and how to use them.
