Taking it easy on the blinds?

    I currently plugging away at the $22 s&g's on pp. I have played 120 and my ROI is 52%. I take it easy on the blinds at the early levels (will limp on button / CO with sc, small pp etc) or until it reached 6 or less players.

    I "think" that by not attacking peoples blinds from the off, that when i start to I get more respect and stealing is easier.

    Am i deluding myself? Should I attack at every opportunity?

    PS. Does anyone find s&g boring as cheski?

    If you ROI is really 52% then do whatever the hell your doing and keep doing it.

    It is but I think my sample size may too small to give me an accurate ROI.

    Very true but keep at it as is.

    I too don't try to steal blinds at early levels, its not really stealing if no one wants them anyway. And I think this means its easier to steal them later on if you have a tighter image.

    Sorry for highjacking this thread but have just started sngs myself and interested to know if you'd have any other tips for success?

    120 is a very small sample size, but it's still enough to have some sort of idea of what to expect. If your ROI is 52% over 120 you are definitely doing something right, so keep it up. The best way to play most stts is tight early, and aggressive late on; this works particularly well at the $20 buy in level because the players won't notice that you are adopting this strategy. Keep it up, whatever you're doing it's good, once you start losing then you should look to change strategies, but at the moment I'd stick to whatever you're doing. You can't really improve too much on a 52% ROI.
