Greetings

Hello Leath. Wellcome

Check Pokerstrategy free money link, there re many good videos for SNG on Pokerstrategy.

How many SNGs did you played on PartyPoker ? How many tables you play at once?

Good luck

Thanks for the link, I'm currently going through all of the SnG lessons.
On PartyPoker I mostly only played 1 table due to the fact that Turbo and Hyper were the only speeds available.
I think I do pretty well playing one table but notice a significant drop with 2 tables already and with the short time bank you have on PartyPoker I just didn't feel like I'm playing well or improving.
Which is why my sample size isn't really that informative yet. I think I've played around 250 tournaments there.
During the first 70 or so I've lost almost 40% my bankroll because it was the first time I played SnGs altogether (after I figured that I seemingly did a lot better in MTTs than in cash games but didn't want to play for that many hours).
During that time I also bought a book about SnGs and read online articles and it took me a while to find a good balance between what the book stated I should do and what my skills allowed me to do (also adjusting to player behaviour at the micros) but finally by the time I played 100 tournaments I was back at my initial bankroll.

So in order to finally get a better understanding of my own skills and better identify the variance I wanted to increase the sample size by changing to a site that allowed me to multitable with more time to think about the actions.
Max I tried once on 888 was 4 tables but it was around that number that it got more stressful. So I'm trying to stick to 2 tables for now.

There is no rush, just study and when you are ready you can add another table.
Before you buy materials or a book just ask for opinions on the forum. These days many people pretend to be winning players and they sell things ¨to improve your game¨ when they actualy are quite bad players themselves.

Can i ask what book did you got for SNG´s ?

Good luck !

Hey leath,

Don't forget to check out Collin's Sit 'N Go Crushers Academy. Also try to catch his weekly live coachings on our Twitch channel.

You can check the upcoming schedule here.

Have fun

Thanks for all the great replies, this really is by far the most active and informative forum I've joined so far.
The book I've bought was Sit 'N Go Strategy from Collin Moshman.
I'll definitely check out the Academy and the Twitch channel, thanks for bringing that to my attention!

Currently I'm debating whether I should just go ahead and try playing a bit higher stakes like 5$ tournaments.
I know that poker has become a lot more competitive over the last years but I feel that for these strategies to work best people have to at least take the game semi-seriously which might not be the case in 1$ tournaments (an advice I read in Alexander Fitzgerald's book "The Myth of Poker Talent").
That's probably not really an argument either because a good poker player should still win against inexperienced ones in the long run but when people call large 3bets preflop with 98s it becomes pretty hard for me to guess how they hit the flop.
But then again I wonder why I did so much better back over at PartyPoker where I only really played 1$ turbos. It seems I just need to invest some more money in trying out different things for now.

I mostly play after I come home from work and flag all the hands where I wasn't really sure of my actions for review and then go over them on the weekend.

Hello again
Remeber you can always post hands on the forum and people with experience can give you advices.

Going up in stakes when you lose is never a good ideea. You just need to study, adapt and put in the right volume.

You can start a blog here on Pokerstrategy to keep track of what you play, how you play, post hands and ask for help.

I was definitely going to post some hands with my thoughts on them eventually and see what other people think about them but starting a blog here is a very interesting idea.
Although I'm not really sure how. Do you suggest I open a new thread somewhere in the SnG part of the forum and use that as a blog or is there an actual blog sort of functionality on this website?

I also dislike the thought of moving up in stakes as long as I'm not consistently winning as I did back on PartyPoker. Maybe I'll start going for some Double or Nothing tournaments instead first.

Ohh neat thank you
