Hi gang,

I hope you can help me out a little hear. I've been playing a lot of 6Max SnGs lately and I'm having quite a bit or trouble on the bubble and subsequently heads up. In the format I am playing we usually get to the bubble when everyone still has well over 20 big blinds. I don't know if that's part of the problem. I've been trying to use a push/fold strategy and after a while I usually get trapped by a limper or min raise. Besides that I'm really not sure what range I should be pushing with.

In the last game I played I tried to use raises a 3bets a little more and it seemed to work out for me. For some reason my opponents seem less inclined to call a 3bet for 3/4 of their stack than an all in. I'm not sure why.

Any direction, videos, articles, etc., you can direct me toward would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I would say when youre so deep i wouldn't just push/fold because you are making your opponents play perfectly against you! there are a lot of push fold charts just google it.

But yeah push fold 15bb max maybe more 12. as 15+bb in SNG format is a lot trust me.

It is not the best strategy to push/fold when you still have 20+ BB in a 6max S&G. If there is no ante then you risk 20BB to win 1.5BB, and most players have tight range of calling all-in preflop. You can do the math.

Meh, depends on your stack...on the bubble, just wait it out unless you have qq or better...at least that's what I'd do.
