Hi,

Thanks for this. Any help is much appreciated. I have logged about 1.6m hands of NLHE SnGs so I know how good this advice is and something that as not said often enough to new players.

I also know that the really good amateurs are often far better than a lot of the weak pros. Something tells me that you probably fit into the good amateur section.

When I started playing OH8 SnGs about a month ago I was 2 tabling a 1.5 and a 3.5. I quickly realised that the difference between the two was the number of high volume good players. At 3.5 there are just enough to make the end game a real challenge. I need to really nail down the basics and then I may consider moving up a level.

Does feel a bit strange being back at the micros again but I know it is the best way.

OH8 is a great game though. Looking forward to learning.

            As played I would have jammed turn, and def jam river once it peels how you played it.

              The only reason i would not be jamming flop is to jam turn. Jamming turn i think better though as we have some FE v weak hands and we are still drawing. Saying that FE is these is hard to find lol
