In need of GOOD, USEFUL advice for 9-man Sit n go's playing against solid players. I usually suck big time at 9-man's, but I somehow managed to claw my way to WSOP Step 6 on Stars. I imagine a few online pros will be at my table, and I have ZERO experience playing against skilled players. If you have solid strategy tips or might know what to watch out for, I'm all ears. Now when I lose I can blame it on you people...

I would suggest playing relatively ABC poker for the first couple of orbits, as the structure is pretty decent in the steps for the beginning. Busting out early in the steps suck as you don't even get to move back down to level 5 if you're one of the first 3-4 to bust if i remeber correctly. You can't sit around too much either, as a lot of the people you'll be playing have played hundreds of these tourneys, so they aren't afraid to get it in bad and try to amass a stack. I would suggest after gettting a feel for the table that you start loosening up and call some of these players down light. I don't think the steps show up on sharkscope, but i would sharkscope the players at your table so you know who plays more SNG's and is more likely to be playing loose.

It's rehab, not detox

tomaeto-tomahto, get your ass out already.

congrats buzzrbeetr, i know it isnt what you wanted, but i think its pretty fantastic if you only bought in for 7 dollars or whatever
