Default Re: Low Ceiling vs High Ceiling-SNG strategy(long)

Awesome post.
I was born and raised on 1500chip SnGs.
The only difference was that you played HC for a greater # of hands per SnG before the LC "go apeshit" phase kicked in.
Ergo, a good HC player came into the LC segment with more ammo.
Then i moved to Party.
The LC segment is pitifully short.
For all intents and purposes, PP SnG may as well start at 800/1000 chips at t50/100 (with 2-5 arbitraty villians gone AWOL
That is where the profit comes from.
We all pay 1.1xBI...and 5-8 of us will "gamboooool" for the prize pool.
Somewhat facetious, of course there is some "skill" in LC, but really, its more a case of you just not having a LACK of LC smarts.
I will play 7 people, in a coinflipping roundrobin, for last man standing stakes of 50/30/20. IF im the sh*t, i may be a little more likely than anyone else at the table to get the top prizes.
But not my much.
