chipEV != $EV.

Each chip lost is worth more than each chip gained.

Therefore pot odds have to be much greater in an SnG than cashgame for it to be +EV to chase.

I have opposite problem.Yesterday I lost 14 buy-ins, when I played SNG (11+1) with maniacs.Playing tight, I almost every sng stay alive down to last 6-5 players, with reasonable stack.Then start stealing blinds.
BUT yesterday, 5 of 6 players see the flop, I cannot bluff.They call BB, raise , push EVERY flop or preflop. It is pure gambling when you try win over 5 players in one push.

then tighten up and let them tangle. if they are that loose.

yes, but if you have about 2000 chips and blinds are 200/400 you cannot wait too long for good cards!And if you get them, you have still 5 players on the flop.

dont know what to tell u bro but pushing at 200/400 and getting 5 callers is something i am not familiar with.

It's obvious that this guy has no idea what the 10BB rule/pushbotting/ICM is and is probably standard raising 3BB on the bubble at 200/400 with 3000 chips.
