The best way to beat the SNGs are to play super tight early blinds and loosen up mid-late blinds just like everyone says..
From one of the best SNG players out there, collin moshman, suggest when blinds are still below 50-100 fold almost everything except JJ+,AQs + from early position..so that means fold your AJo and your pocket 99s and lower..and when your in the later position play your TT+ , AJs + ...so basically during early blinds play super nitty like that..its tempting to see flops with suited connectors and smaller pairs but in a SNG just dont do it! its just not worth it when your trying to beat one table.
in mid blinds(50/100) you still want to be tight like early blinds in early position but in late position start opening with 88s + and some suited broadways ..
late blinds in later position raise with 77s+, broadways, any suited ace ..considering you have a good stack..
that is just the very basic of beating an SNGs..after you know to be tight early and loose late.. you need to know when to shove and when to fold, this is what is going to take you to the next level..
when you have a stack size of 10 BBs or lower you NEVER want to just raise...if you have a good hand just push all your chips in ..
conisdering you have a stack size around 10 blinds..your pushing and folding range should depend on your position..as you get to later position your shoving range should be wider ...
another very important thing that all pro sng players know is how to play in the small blind...when everyone folds to you in the small blind and stack sizes are around 10 blinds..you can shove and pocket pair, broadway, suited ace, A9o+ and doing this will make your a long term winning player..and if you dont even have 10 blinds, lets say you have about 2-8 blinds..just shove any two.. you can have even 23o or 72o and shoving hear is a profitable move..
from anywhere in any position when you only have 5 blinds or lower shove any 2..REGARDLESS of your cards since you do NOT want to be blinded out..shove with any 2 cards when you still have a little bit of fold
equity..
and thats pretty much the blueprints in beating sngs..of course you cant always win due to bad luck but using the strategy above will have you coming out a winning player..if you have any questions just lemme know! Ok!
