I've had a Revelation.

[Larimani]

I have been stuggling in the past few months to convert from limit cash games to NL STT's. My ROI must have been close to 0 & I just couldn't understand why.

Tonight, I've had a revelation. I don't know what's happened. It seems that the fog that has been hovering over my computer screen over the last few months just vanished. Now I see clear.

I played about 15 SNGs tonight, & have placed about 12 times...

My main problem is that I used to play far too many hand in the first few level... But you really don't have to. Just fold all but premium hands & watch others knocking themselves out! Before you know it there are 4/5 players left... You're already close to the money & still have a stack to play with... At this point you have to play smart. Aggressive, but selective. With a couple of good read and some well placed aggressivity you increase your stack size and let the smaller stacks knock each other out. If *you* are the one short stacked, make a few moves & pray. Once in you're in the money then you're in the money... try to go for first place.

I used to swear by limit... but NL is where it's at.

Thanks to the 2+2ers input which was a precursor to my revelation.

P.S.: I'm not too sure of the point of this post... so don't reply with "so what?"
