I have been playing a lot of them lately and I wanted to know if someone knows a good place (free) to study Turbo SNG's.
I do have the basic knowledge of ranges and betting sizes etc. but sometimes I doubt myself if I am making right desicions.

Suggestions are appreciated!

It's simple. There are doubts - fold. Having a high pair or 2 pairs do not push all-in. Try not to bet more than 3bet. Very often they move. As got reraised - fold. Play the first time so until you find your style.

It's been a few years since I've played these games regularly but assuming the basics are still the same - being successful in these games at anything past the lowest buyin levels requires being able to make consistently good push/fold decisions, where often the cards you're holding matter less than your position, your stack size and the stage of the game.

As for where you can learn that for free... I dunno if I've got any good answers for that. There used to be a group of SnG regs that would go through hands and even entire games in the hand analysis forum here. I also got a lot of value out of some paid coaching videos at the time.

If you want to study a bit more intense, the book most often recommended is: "Collin Moshman - Sit n go strategy"
I have the book (I am also playing SnGs) but I must confess, I haven't read it yet :eek:

My advice is not to be afraid to play aggressively, use bluff. Do not play all in!

Constantly be reviewing your HH using programmes like Icimizer or Equilab. Learn 15-25bb opening range PF and -15bb push/fold.

So... don't be afraid to be aggressive (in the right spots) is certainly good advice. But "do not play all in"? If you're concerned about that, then SNGs (particularly turbo ones) are absolutely the wrong game to be playing.

Making correct push/fold decisions is absolutely essential to winning in these games. Especially in the late game stages, you'll most likely be going all in a LOT.

Top of the skill to play regardless of the cards. And this implies an aggressive game
