SNGs vs Cash games

[xorbie]

For all you who don't know me (all of you?), I'm a winning cash game player at the 200/400NL level. I 8 table the 6max games, so I have my standard agressive deepstack shorthanded play down pretty pat, which conveniently matches absolutely no state of a Party SNG. A few nights ago after a horrid session, I decided to sit in a couple 109's (probably not a great place to start, but whatever), and I think I can beat these with a few tweaks to my game.

So, long story short, are there any particularly good threads I should search for about the cash --> SNG transition?

Honestly, the biggest difference between SnGs and cash games (IMO) is the any two push. Once you understand that there really isn't much else. (There is with MTTs though). I rememeber when on this forum it seemed revolutionary... here's the original thread that I recall on the subject

Compared to NL, the blinds are huge after a while and most of the mistakes you can get your opponent to make he makes preflop and not postflop.

Don't know if you've read this one yet. I still haven't read it all. I really suck. Well, here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...=14&fpart=1

In (party) SnG's you just have to play really tight when the blinds are low (you don't want to spew chips in marginal situations), and when the blinds get bigger and you come close to the bubble, you should start going all-in when you have <10BB (or a bit less or more, some people think) and make use of your fold equity, because the blinds will make a significant difference to your stack, and most people are careful/afraid around the bubble.
