Kurn - please give us some tips for this particular SNG format

Well, I'd say it's a 100% preflop game, and you're too shortstacked to ever play tight, like at the beginning of a normal SNG.

That being said, during the first level, in the 1st 2 positions, shove 1st in with 88+, A8+, KT+. CO and button make it any pair, any A, any 2 b'way, K8+. Call shoves with about 2/3 of your shove range.

After level 1, see how many are left, assess if you can if anybody is playing stupid tight, loosen up - 1st 2 positions shove 1st in with any pair, any A, any K, any 2 suited, unsuited connectors and 1-gappers 97+. Last 2 positions and SB open-shove atc. In the blinds, call with 3/4 of the EP shove range.

Just winging it here, but the above shouldn't be too wrong.
