Strategy in Live Satellite with fast structure and slow dealers

[illph]

I am playing a lot of these lately and I end up limp-folding a lot in the early levels and then pushing any two in the late levels...also, I'm doing poorly.

Blinds are 25-50, 50-100, 100-200, 200-400, 400-800 with blinds increasing every 8 to 12 minutes. Starting stacks are usually between 1500 and 2500. The winner gets an entry to a bigger tourny. 2nd gets 700 "points" 3rd gets 300, 1000 points = 1 entry.

Players are usually calling pretty wide pre- and postflop.
I'm basically looking for a general idea of how to play these.

stop limp/folding...and don't stop the folding part.

I'm so tired of these "live SNG" how-to threads. No matter what the structure or the number of hands gotten out, the strategy remains the same. Certainly there are some nuances, but you're not reinventing the wheel.
