Last week we discussed beginner strategy for the middle levels of a standard single-table sit & go in which the top three spots pay. This week we find ourselves on the money bubble with four players left.
Since we're playing poker for real money, our main goal at this point is not to be the next player out and miss the cash. In order to survive, we have to know how to shove and call correctly so we do not get forced all in by the blinds and antes.
Shoving Correctly
As the shortest stack, shove slightly wider than Nash on the second-shortest stack
The thing that makes shoving so profitable is fold equity.
