i guess it will be worthful, to build a forum thread where everyone give few tips for playing handrange, calling range etc. perhaps we could divide it into SnG, short stake, mid stake, big stake and heads up.
so. i will beginn with my strategy for SnGs 10 player top 3 paid:
in the beginning i play tight for dont wasting my stake.
limp pairs only when there was no raise (included 9 9)
from early position i only raise AA, KK, QQ, AK(AK only raise if there was no raise before me, QQ when more than 1 raises before me than fold)
then there is JJ and T T: only raise from at least middle position when there was no raise, early position only call. when anyone raises then this is sure to fold
so AQ, AJ, KQ: i only play from late position when noone raises before me, than i raise standard 4 BB + limper. early and late position i fold them, when anyone raises i fold too.
when blinds are raising(would say if u have 15-20 BB :
i play less hands
AA KK raise or all-in if sb raises before me AK QQ JJ raise or if only 1 raise before me than all-in. if more than 1 raise than i fold
TT, AQ only raise from at least middle position when noone raise before me
at the bubble(4 players left):
depends whether im shorty or big stack:
as a shorty my pushing range for steal blinds is K 8 o or above
as big stack u can use fold equity of bubble to steal blind s more often: it varies but i guess u can take above Q 7 o at least to push(Q7 o is the average hand)
at heads up of this SnG: heads up pushing range is every king or above i guess( varies a lil bit but that is right i guess)
