Just played my first ever 180 sit & go. The play was different to what I expected. I had to adjust quickly to what was happening. Taking down the pot pre-flop was a rare sight, and there was much more 3 betting than I expected in the early stages.
With a decent stack calling with A 10 to a 20BB shove seemed like optimal play to me in this comp ?
I have never seen so many all-ins. Maybe my first taste of these 180s was not typical ? I am looking forward to playing my next one. I finished 15th for $3.89 in my first one.
I have been playing cash games 6 max $20 recently, and obviously the two are worlds apart. Maybe my mindset was still in this mode, and why this format came as a bit of a shock.
Just to confirm in our league is it the player that accumulates the most prize money, not the player who makes most profit after deducting the $2.50 entry fees?
