Would a KP SNG strategy work well even if the stacks are fairly big (i.e. Stars)?

[Shandrax]

The book is certainly very interesting, but people should be aware that this strategy leads to lots of coin-flips where you are the underdog. You will be "in position" to get lucky, nothing more, nothing less. It is certainly difficult to beat the all-in strategy, but it is just as difficult for the all-in guy to survive all the time.

The authors state that in order to win a tournament you need to double up something like seven times. This makes me wonder, because I could go and play roulette as well. I put my money on black seven times in a row and look what happens.

Anyways, I will give KP a shot in our local tournament [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
