Does anyone know what the starting stack sizes are for the $5 Sit&Gos? I've been playing the 3.30s and they're 1000. Thinking about trying the $5.

NEVERMIND!!

I'm always figuring chit out AFTER I ask a stupid question. All I needed to do is look at a game that's running and see what they are.

That being said, it'd be really great if they'd up the starting stacks of SNG's to 1,500. Please Global???

I like 1k stacks. Makes the game more competitive and quicker than the 2k stacks do that we get in the tournaments.

I've been playing these real nitty-like in the 1st level, and try to stay that way for the 2nd, too, but with 25BB to start, I'm in push/fold mode a lot.

You guys are probably playing a lot higher, but maybe you could comment. All my education about SNGs says to play tight early, and open up late, but I'm not sure if those articles and videos are referring to stacks this short.

Maybe this should be in the strat forums, but maybe someone could comment here?

Thanks, guys.
