In a SnG or MTT 29 hands plus all suited connectors come into play. Position is Vital. Preflop betting and raising is VITAL.

What are the 29 hands,you may ask... lol

aa, kk, qq, jj, tt, 99, 88, 77, 66, 55, 44, 33, 22, ak-a2, kq, kj, qj, and all suited connectors. that's 29

Plus there are plenty of situations where the cards don't matter at all - especially late, shorthanded and in situations where you are playing super-tight idiots.

Whoops, I'm sorry SB vs BB add Kt-K2, Qt-Q5, and TJs.

And I'm not saying it's ill advised to play 19 hand in mtt or sng. I'm saying it's impossible. It's suicide. You can't win.

relative stack sizes are also important in some instances.

Read Harrington on Holdem Vol 1. That's cure what ailes you. Vol 2 is good also, but i think get's to balled up on stack sizes.


With that said I've had great success playing HOH style and will post my HOH chart and MTT information on patience soon.

So there you go.

JUKE IS ..... RIGHT!
