Key Points for the End Game of a SNG:
Here are the key points you should take away from the above video, plus some extra tips that should help guide you to a first place finish.
#1 - Use Your Notes
You'll notice that I used reads I made earlier in the sit and go to help me in this video. I'd like to stress again how important note taking is in sit and go's. There were a few spots in this sit and go where I was able to make an easy decision because of observations I had made previously.
#2 - Use the Continuation Bet
Early in the video I had Ace-Nine off-suit, raised it in the small blind, and had to see the flop. The flop came down Ace-rag-rag, and I fired out a pot sized bet. You have to stay aggressive during the late stages of a sit and go, and when you raise it preflop its important to continuation bet the flop (as long as it's not too scary).
#3 - Pay Attention to Blinds and Antes
This sit and go got heads up really quickly, and blinds were still only 100/200. Most players automatically loosen up when you get heads up, but you really should be looking at the blinds, not the number of players remaining. In this case, I was able to stay tight because the blinds were still low, and it helped me get a feel for my opponent before I had to open it up.
