Need to write some articles on sit and gos

FWIW, is this is going to be a series of articles, I think bankroll requirements/management would be an excellent place to start.

You could explain the various structures of SNGs on different sites, mention Turbos, rakeback, etc. Sort of give a whole pverview of the SNG scene before you go into any actual startegy on your next article.

If it's a SNG specific article i would definitely go for a shortstack situation where you push with a marginal hand.

You could use a simple sample hand where you push with a quite bad holding and explain in detail why it is +EV (assign the blinds a calling range and do the calculations). You could do a borderline hand which is +EV from the button but -EV from MP or something. Basically this is a variation of the SHAL chapter in HOH2.

You could also do something about the resteal: When you should do it, when absolutely not. Sample hand could be a typical player who steals a lot makes it 2.5 BB from the button and you push with you're suited connector from the BB with a 12 BB stack...something like that.

Hope these ideas might help you, good luck.

Depending on the audience, I think a solid guide on reading hands would be especially helpful. I remember CrisBrown, William, Aleo and Bluff1 wrote a few good ones some time ago. There's also a decent article by Sudhir K. Padmanabhan called "A Basic Primer to Reading Hands in Holdem" (PM me if you want a soft copy of the Sudhir article or some links to the others...I can dig them up).

What site are you writing for?

Generally, provide some basic theory and follow it up with a series of examples explaining how you would play each one and then show how changing some of the variables even very slightly would have you play it differently and why. You do this quite a bit here and I find it invaluable.

Specifically I'd like to see how you defend against all-in pushes in various situations - what combination of factors makes you call vs fold.

Isnt there really nothing about SnG's?

Isnt that like a good thing?

Are they seriously paying you enough to make it +EV?

It's close.... but okay there are other benefits to writing articles and having published works out there.
