Default Re: I\'m a bit new to SnGs- Need advice

All in!

You'll be a favorite against most of the hands the BB is likely to call with. A Raise is out of the question unless it's All in. Since your image is tight, the likelihood of picking up the blinds is strong and overall makes this a EV+ play.

Keep in mind KQs is 62% against a random hand. So assuming the button and SB fold, you'll be in pretty good shape.

Finally, to maintain good stats in SNG you really need to get second or first. Obviously, third is better than fourth, but not by much. Even though three places pay out, I do everything I can to win second or better. In this situation, you need to double up to have a chance at second. In order to be a winning SNG player you have to risk bubbling in order to get second or better.
