There is an interesting powerful in Sit and go Tournaments that happens to me approximately one out every five times I place in the money. The predicament occurs when I’m the chip chief and can take any of the other three outstanding gamblers out of the tournament in any given hand. In fact, I have them all covered and there is very possibly a small stack facing elimination on the bubble with no cash. When this occurs, there may be a system I engage that confirms me as the odds on favorite to win initial place.

Let me offer you a scenario for example. I am at a 9 seated, 10 dollars plus 1 dollar sit and go on Full Tilt Poker – my preferred new site. All players started with one thousand five hundred chips and there are four gamblers left. I occur to be the chip chief with six thousand eight hundred and fifty while a small stack who has just five hundred and twenty five chips is to my immediate left. One other two players are both around three thousand one hundred in chips and have tightened up for an expected in-the-money finish. The blinds are 100/200 and I’m the small blind although the small stack awaits my next move as one other two players folded and I am holding Ace, nines.

Certainly I am the favourite here, and under regular circumstances would put the quick stack to an all in decision. Rather – I fold and hand over my smaller blind to the short stack who now sits at a somewhat relieved six hundred and twenty five chips. Why would I do that, you might ask? Having another two tight gamblers, set on making the cash is an advantage to a massive stack in this scenario, because having that 4th player still alive means that I can nevertheless threaten them with bubble play. Meaning, I can take extra blinds, out of placement when the 2 tight players are the modest blind and massive blind.

With a good chip lead like this one, and various tight players, I desire to extract as quite a few blinds as I can because I want my dominant placement even stronger as the session changes into heads up play. This is in thinking with the first or third philosophy, in which I know I’m going to produce the money, but I desire to be aggressive shorter handed most of the time, so that I have more than my fair share of very first area payoffs. Let us say in the above circumstances that 1 of the other gamblers collects all of the chips instead of me. We have heads up and guess what? We are almost even in chip count. Then it might be anybody’s game. Yes, I normally do nevertheless have an advantage, except I really want the kind of advantage where I’m also a 4 to 1 or even 5 to 1 chip chief! This will practically eliminate the chance of my opponent winning the tournament by drawing out. And we all understand how usually that takes place heads up. I’ve a video of this exact system in my absolutely free sit and go poker video series.

Keep this chance in mind as you receive into a money position. Do not begin wagering like you might be just happy to make the money, wager on like that you are satisfied to take the cash!
