Sit & Go

Generally, tight aggressive play works best in small stakes sit & go tournaments. This is especially the case against weak opponents who play wide ranges of cards. Most of the time these players overvalue top pair and chase every draw on the board. Premium card players can dominate these tournaments long term. However, what do you do when you shove a high pair and get a bad beat? You may be left with a small amount of chips depending on your chip and blind position. Shortstack strategies vary, but solid shortstack play can add plug a huge leak in your game. Tight aggressive blind stealing and shoving can create memorable comebacks and add to your bankroll.

Small tournaments called Sit n' Go's (SNGs) usually consist of anywhere from 6-9 people, where as multi-table tournaments (MTTs) have multiple tables of 18 or more players.
