Stealing/late game question

[Klak]

what do i do when i reach the late stages of a SNG and i need to start stealing, but i have some moron in front of me who keeps calling off his stack when the blinds are like 10% of his stack? should i just call with my steal hands and try to steal on the flop? or should i just wait for this guy to call off all his stack?

I'm not sure what you mean. Is he limping in, or is he calling raises? If he is limping in all the time, you can pretty much pretend he isn't there and go on stealing his chips along with the blinds. If he is calling raises liberally, you might need to tighten up a little bit.

yeah i mean he is limping in and hes on my right. i guess just treating him like a blind might work, id have to tighten up the hands i steal with tho.

Well, yes, a little, but on the bright side, your steals will net you more chips...

this is not a bad thing

if he is limping with weak hands he is basically giving you a ton of money
