I strongly suggest playing SNGs, as they really help your late tournament game. I also think they are much more profitable than multis.

When it gets late you need to steal more, obviously, that's what your post is about. However, which hands to steal with? I like to steal from the cutoff and button with hands ranging from any pair to 98o to Axo to K9o to Q5s and J8o. Obviously anything better and of course it's getting raised. It somewhat depends as well on who's in the blinds, how big my stack is, and how big the stacks behind me are. Playing SNGs should help you develop the feel as to when to try and steal.
