Message: [QUOTE="Hsac, post: 6446776, member: 431663"] The game I've gained the most expertise in is triple up SNGs. In that game you split the payoff with two other players, so once you gain the chip lead around 3k in chips or higher you stand a good chance of winning. That's when my strategy in the game changes. I focus on the critical stacks, the players who can't take me out of the game or diminish my stack to critical levels. I'm careful to that point to build a tight image, so when I raise with a mediocre hand most often the other players fold. If another player reraises or goes all in, then I fold. There is no desire to put my chip lead in jeopardy when odds are I've already won the game. I've even mucked AA in such circumstances. Why take the chance of someone getting lucky. But if someone with a critical stack goes all in while I'm holding AA, or any pockets or high cards, then we get cooking. It's all a matter of focus. [/QUOTE]
