    Default Amazing sit and go strategy

    Why bothering with reads, position, odds calculation? There's a simpler way to play poker.

    I love how donks just start calling with crap once he starts to push like 3 hands in a row. Like QJ is a great hand to call all in with all of a sudden?

    Or how when it's down to HU the guy calls a shove with J5s with 35bbs left.

    Yeah, this is very interesting, surprised by travz comment. You should play to twin (or 2nd in this case), I think a gamble is ok uner good br mangament. you only get 10% hands 10% of the time, might as well commit here. travz, why is he a donk? i dont like sitting w/ 1.5k chips 5 way, either double to shoot for 2nd or go home imo. if he had done this 6 hands in a row, then no briainer call imo.

    You think limping in hoping to induce someone to shove when you are holding QJo is a +ev play?

    Ignoring the limping part, yea I'd get in there. As for a cash game, getting in 100x deep is not something I'd consider, though if this were a short stacker (40x) who were doing this, then I would.

    Because you can fold and take at least 3rd 100% of the time if you keep folding. Even after like 3 hands you can see how easy it's going to be to make the money if you just fold.

    There were actually 2 people that called all in with QJ. There were 5 people and 4 people left. Then another guy called with KQs with 4 people left and got in a 3way all in with the QJ guy. It's just really bad. It's +chip EV but it's losing you money. You should be calling in cash games, not SNGs. So I think you're thinking backwards there.

    I was talking about 1st QJ w/ 5 players, where she calls only his all in, though has 2 limpers behind.

    Thinking dynamically, you don't want the others guys to double up. And given that he shoved 56o, over a bunch of limpers, suggests he really is shoving close to ATC and obv his chips are expected to last. So suggesting you can fold into 3rd place 100% is a little optimistic imo.
