SNG ADVICE - Make it snappy pappy

[renolite]

Please post your most important SNG advice in three lines or less. I'm trying to see what the perception is out there regarding the most important aspects of a SNG style event. Let's say low limit $5/10 SNG's only.

Come in cheap for early levels and continue with sure things. Later, Play tight preflop, steal, expect most hands to call you to usually be better*.

*(only because for hands like AK, AA, KK, QQ, you usually have a clear picture where you stand, but things like A8s, QJs, it seems people are often "crossing their fingers".

Steal blinds when you have the chance.

[Dominic]

don't try to trap more than one opponent at a time. Your set may not be the best hand at the end if you slowplay it against more than one player...

and just in general - don't slowplay. Until it's down to three or less.

Patience is a virtue.

[Bankok]

Couple things I do.

Play tight and be patient.
If you are blessed enough to get an a/a or k/k in an early position early in a sng, do not slow play it, bet big. 95% of the time someone will call your all in, especially in the first 4-7 hands.
