If 50 chips were nothing, then why not limp 3 times every game in level one with speculative hands like suited connectors?

Why not?

Unless you a terrible post flop player (keep in mind that hold'em IS a psot flop game...) then this should not hurt your game. In fact, this should increase your ROI, especially at lower limits.

Oh my....

What is wrong?
Are you not confident enough to play suited connectors on the flop?

Nope, I'm not. I suck at SNG's, and poker in general. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

It's ok. I used to be the same way. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

But seriously, are we all against post flop play? Does everything really have to be, ALL IN, coin flip, coin flip, coin flip?

In SNGs it's more like ALL IN, win some blinds, ALL IN, win some blinds, ALL IN, win some blinds, ALL IN, coin flip with villain's chips . . .

suited connectors have little value when the stacks are so shallow. Trying to hit a set on lvl 1 is a different story though. On party you have 53 BB to start and then almost immediately after that you have 26.5 BB.
