Well I got fed up with O8 for a bit, switched to NLHE, wanted to punt a kitten after about 3 days of that, so now I'm back and trying out teh SNG's. Seems pretty fun so far, it's certainly been educational as far as hand equities and whatnot. I've skimmed through the search function and I've noticed we don't have a ton of SNG discussion. Hope to get a little going here.

1) Is it worth getting the Moshman / Harrington books on SNGs? Is there any SNG literature that is O/O8-centric?
2) At what "M" (I think that's the term) does "oh ****" mode kick in? I feel very comfortable even with a disturbingly low stack in this game, much more so than in NLHE.
3) At what level am I going to hit the wall of regulars?
4) Quick tips for figuring ICM in a game of very close equities and wide ranges?
5) SH/HU PLO8 with 4BB stacks. WTF.
6) Any other general tips/tools for getting started as a serious PLO8 SNG grinder? I'm not looking for handouts, just a pointer in the right direction.

FNJ - I swear by Harrington for core concepts. I purchased and never finnished Moshman. YMMV. [
FNJ - This is a topic subject to much debate. I believe that the harrington zones don't apply very well because of the split-pot aspect. You have a better chance of surviving a push, but you also have a much higher chance of being called by four not-quite random cards.
FNJ - About 20$ and up on stars I see the same screen names constantly.
FNJ - How many low cards do you have and how strong are they? Learn how to estimate your risk-of-ruin and push according to your chance of the defender(s) folding and your chance of taking at least half of the pot.
FNJ - Yes, it's tough to find a skill advantage here. Occasionally you will.
FNJ - Just the usual. Play cheap enough that losing a flippament in the first level won't break your heart into a zillion pieces.
