Early game blinds are low the bubble is long ways away, mid game the bubble is approaching icm becomes a factor, and late game blinds are big and not a lot of room for post flop play and players may open shove over your raise.

Google "pokerprofessor sng strategy". There's a nice free guide that explains the 5 stages of a sng. And some advanced concepts.

Yes u can use blind references.

In early game u have very large stack and much big blinds, usually over 50 BB's.

Mid game or phase is when you are approaching the bubble, and than it ends. U usually have under 50 BB's.


Late game is when blinds further increase and your stack decreases. Usually tournament average is like 20 BB's.


I'm new here so I'm not sure if you have articles on CardsChat,
but you can seach on google "Early and Middle Phase" and also "The Late Phase" for detailed explenation.

I like to think about the average stack sizes. Early on the tournament everyone has 100+. Mid stages are when it is like 40BB. Late stage is when there is 30% of the field left and then the bubble and then the final table.

When I think of stages in a tournament, I tend to think of post flop play ability. 100+bb is different from how you would play 20-25bb as well as less than 10bb.

I agree that each effective stack has a gameplay and for that we need to signify standardized betting rules for each effective stack, correct?

I have been suffering a lot with raises / call and raise / fold and even resteal with less than 15 and even 20 blinds?What would you advise?
Do they work with raises in position or only resteal with this stack range?
