ok guys i need help with hand selection in the STT sit n gos. i got third in a sit n go last night, but the next few games i've playing on i've lost. So heres the thing. I feel i need to work on my hand selection. I know that the strategy articles will say play tight at the beginning or play more hands since the blinds are small or play premium hands. Now from my experience i know that those first 30 to 40 hands in a sit n go are crucial. I mean those blinds will eat you up. If i sit there and fold and fold and wait for premium hands. Well actually thats a bunch of crap. Thsoe premium hands dont come around to often so you got get in there and play some hands make some rases and take down some pots. Another thing i know that agression does cause you to win. Heres what i do personally i need to know what hands do you guys keep and throw away. for me what i do is i will throw a way hands like 63off 72o A2-10off most of the time some times i will limp with A2-10suited i'll fold small pairs sometimes limp with them but mainly fold and raise and sometime limp with medium pairs and of course play that hands that everyone else will play when the come around like KK QQ JJ AJ.... I guess what i wanna wanna know is how do you guys build that big stack in that first half hour of the sit n go. What hands are doing it for the Ax hands. Are you limping with these. Raising it up with suited or unsuited conectors.. Am i throwing away too many small aces. am i raising too much.....I feel like i have good hand selection i use common sense most of the time when playing (62off..yuck...A4 fold bad kicker...KQoff fold ive read not to play these hands too much....78off..i read these are better to play when suited)....help me outs guys please..thank you for reading this long post..
