4 handed in party sngs, how to play?

[AlphaWice]

I just dropped 200 playing $11's.. most of the losses occurred at 4th place. What is correct strategy during 4 handed play?

Basically, play good poker.

ICM also helps with bubble play.

push any hand your going to play, be aware of the gap concept, it takes a much better hand to call a raise than it does to open the pot yourself

push that ish!!

ya.. real helpful

i just went down another $50 cmon someone help me

play tight? play loose? how to play bigstack? what if two stacks are big (you and someone else)?

[AlphaWice]

i think the prob is im pushing too much

for example, there was two stacks uber short, me and this guy tied in chips, i push with 99.. is this good play? (he was bb)

Bubble play is very complex. You cant summarize it in a nice and neat paragraph. And with the way you act, I could really give a rats ass about you anyways.

If you're dropping that much, you need to stop.

I agree, if your dropping that much at the 10's maybe you should try limit or NL holdem instead of SnG's. The 10's are laughable, my grandma could conquer them. (Not ripping on anyone playing them mind you) I respect those playing them and making there way up but each situation presents itself differently and each tourney is different if you have 5000 chips the blinds are 100/200 and you got two small stacks I'd be bullying. If your short stack I'd be targeting the other short stack and pushing on his big blinds.

Its all situational. Check out the FAQ, there should be a link about beatin the 10's.

Post any other questions dude I'm here.
