Default Re: Need help with Fixed Limit play once in the final 2 and 3

I have been playing mostly limit SNG's too. I think the best overall strategy is to play very tight in early rounds, and shift to a loose and aggressive style when blinds are big and there are only 5 or fewer people with sizable stacks.

Final 3: Raise preflop with any ace, any pair, two high cards; if re-raised just call and see the flop.
Whenever a flop really hits you, consider checking until the next round - it gives villain confidence to call your larger limit bets. If you'ved already used that line and showed a winner, probably bet out next time.
If a flop totally misses you, checking down to the river is a lot better than bluffing off your stack and finishing 3rd.
If you have slowplayed a monster, opponents might be afraid to bluff after you check. If you put in a blind, you're usually get good pot odds to see the flop.

Final 2: It might not last very many hands. If your cards really suck, fold and get to another hand. If opponent is timid, be more aggressive; if opponent is aggressive, try to trap. If you flop the nuts giving free cards can work wonders... (I have flopped full house and gotten all the chips when villain got free cards and made a straight!)
