Sit & Go Strategy: Tight & Observant Early On
Did you know that 2/3 of all sit and go players lose money? It’s true. Winning sit and go tournaments on a regular basis requires specific strategies.
In this post I want to talk about the early rounds in a nine-handed, single table sit and go tournament. These early rounds have low blinds and typically last between 20 and 30 minutes.
Use this time to play tight, don’t gamble on marginal hands and OBSERVE your opponents. Usually within the first ten minutes you’ll know what kind of players you are dealing with. Whether you are in a hand or not, be observant and make player notes. Once the Blinds pass the early stages you will have all kinds of useful information that you can use against the remaining players.
By playing tight early on you will also create a ‘tight’ table image, which will help you steal a few pots when the Blinds get higher.
