excellent post taipan. I play intermediate level sngs now, but almost all of these points apply to mid-level buy-ins as well, with the exception of 5, 10, and 11.
10 you have to be really careful with.
11 is very true for low sngs but much more rare for $22-$33's.
5, well I disagree with this, both for low buyins and mid level buyins. In the interest of keeping this thread on topic though, I'll just say that I think you can easily go as low as 6 or 7 BB's before entering this "mode," depending on how full the table is still and their relative stack sizes.
B is not true when the blinds are high and there is a short stack in the BB. D should include this statement as caveat.
E is still true at mid levels, interestingly enough.
Again, excellent post. I've actually been wanting to post something along these lines but more simplified and even more general, and ranked in order of importance of concept.
Oh, and by the way, L is not necessarily true - if you know more than the person disagreeing with you.
