[Q] Low Limits Double or Nothing SNGs - Page 2

Yeah thees DoN sngs are awesome,Im kinda in a grind mode atm.My only probleme is : sometimes i dont get any playable hand trough the entire tournament.My stack drops down 1000 (around 900ish) and the blinds are something like150 or 200.6 handed and obviously every1 want to cash in,so they become very tight.What is a good range to push?

any K-A8+ is decent, big stacks will call you with any 2 a lot of times.

Thx

So I finally broke 100$ playing 5+20s 1 and 2 tabling. I find (depending on table style) to be really tight/aggressive early and semi-loose/aggressive later to be the best start. Position and chip size matters a lot. I usually always raise different amounts as well so they can't get a read on my steals and hands. Late in the tourney it might be a good play to limp late with AA-KK in order to entice a flop steal when you're out of position.

Also, I try and pay attention to the blind raising timer late in the tourney and lag out when short stacks are gonna be in the blinds soon. I think this is technically illegal, but they can't prove anything. This is kind of important in the Turbos. When the blinds are gonna hit 250, That extra 50 chips and ante for a 1,000 stack is the difference between and All-In and a fold. People normally get into push mode once they are at like 1/5-1/3 chip size depending on looseness/tightness.

PS- these 10+40 DONs seem so much more fishy/loose than the 5$. Holy shit. Maybe its just cause its Friday Night.

Has anyone played those DONs at various sites and knows how fishy they are? I only know they exists at Stars and Cake, where I prefer the ones on Stars.

anyone who raises on the bubble when someone is already allin and can be knocked out is an idiot

that KK hand is a sign of mental retardation imo
