I hope we get more opinions about fancy moves at early levels at high stakes SNG.

I'll try to dig up a couple of fun hands. I've probably played as many 530s as anyone the past few weeks and have had good results.

i recall a post from jman28 a few months back about RRing PF from SB with garbage after a semisolid player raised and someone else called. (it was a 530) curtains made a replay saying its a good move sometimes. so fancy moves are clearly +EV!!!!!!!!

Don't be results-oriented. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

And it's exactly when everybody else is sitting on their hands when you want to make some moves. Otherwise it's nine-handed at Level 5 and where's your edge now? The question is whether you have a big enough edge on your moves. I think Degen is in the process of running that experiment for us [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Nah, this is an advanced strategy. First they have to master the Gigabet Dilemma. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

He folds AA and JT like never, should fold AJ/KJ most of the time but will he call with those preflop? KK he folds not very often and QQ some of the time. I think if he folded you were most likely ahead of a KQ'ish hand.
