Hello, friends. I love to play S'n'G tournaments, most of all 45max, 2-3 hours long with 15 minutes structure. What strategy can be playable at these tournaments?
In the early, always playing so tight, 22+,AXo in position, TT+,ATs+ out of position, in middle could play suited connectors, more loose play at late stage.

In early need play more suited connectors, in middle when less 30 bb, you can call only when you button or cutoff , when less 15 bb only push/fold,,

just to let you know op. poker is a very situational game, so going in with a gameplan is great, but you have to change your gameplan up all the time based on what situations you are dealt.

to answer your question we would have to write a book on 45 man play.

Basically put, ask a general question like you have above, and you will get a general answer.

this will not help you improve one bit.

If you are after a general answer here.

play tight early, then loosen up in the middle stages, then go crazy around the bubble, then tighten up again once in the money, but always aim for 1st place, getting ITM with a shortstack is not ideal, play to get a big stack, then use that stack to bully your way to wins.

Play your normal game to begin and adjust appropriately if and when your table gives you reasons to do so.

early you play tight and agressive in the middle and late stage you have to play more lag with some bluffs too because the blinds are too big..

Hello! I also like these tournaments! Play them for a very long time and be careful! Play only good hands, even in the position АJ - throw. But when it comes to the final table, the hand range is expanding!!))))

my strategy is in the early,playing agresiveas much as possible, but my game is such in all tournaments.
a game that you love, I must admit that to me the most convenient of an opponent.
how to say, seem to me easy to read, when you have a strong card, I know you have,
Usually, everyone has their game, and a lot depends on what the other players at the table, you need to adapt to them, not according to your cards

Would love to start a diary on these low stakes SNGs as they are really good value and interesting to play.
My strategy is pretty much the same apart from I often steal blinds to chip up and get to the final table in a good position to come top 3. Requires guts sometimes but works in the long run.

it all depends on your playing style. the early stages of play all the pairs. with small see the flop. also played out connectors in an advantageous position and do not rush to play all the chips at the beginning.

I would advise to play tight
aggressive and not try to be
the chip leader and just play as
if it will push the blinds add a
looz.

I used to play quite a few of these.
Generally I was super nit until Antes began to have some value 20-30 and start to open up abusing the tight image I'd hopefully fostered.
The 3 bet even with 1200 chips in front of you used to be quite viable for me.
Pick good spots until you are up to 3kish and then you can usually hold on for a double with a better hand situation oriented of course.
Then it's just back to grinding waiting for FT to make a move and try and garner a big stack bullying when was the route to take if you had a stack on FT.
Found my ITM % was around 18-19% with a 39-42% ROI after a few K sample with this general approach.
I really enjoyed this format found it to be super profitable, plus they used to run a lot; sadly I dont know the new FTP scene.
