Default When everyone is playing as tight as you are.

I have recently played several SNG's where everyone almost always folds around to the blinds. At first I just waited for a reasonable hand to raise with, but cold cards came, and soon I only had a few BB's. I thought about mixing it up ealrier, but the blinds were too small, and playing too hard for small pots will only make you broke. Once the blinds were big, I was reduced to being pot comitted to whatever hand I entered. What strategy, if there is any, is there at a table where everyone is waiting for big hands PF (besides the blatant fold marginal hands when the rock raises)?

Raise more often (with any hands from late position when it's folded to you). Steal the blinds.

Playing opposite the table is the way to go.
