Just wondering,for those who play 5-20 buy in tourney SNG and MTT... how prevalent have you found the resteal being used. played a lot of SNG a couple MTT's today and saw a ton of suited connectors moving in preflop. I was playing fairly tight and I had people move in on me w/ these hands when I hadn't opened a pot preflop since I sat down. I was just shocked to see it so much today. (atleast 15 times to showdown and a number that I just suspected).

Weird, I don't see resteals with marginal hands that often unless it's 1) very early in a MTT or 2) very deep in one (and I play $5-20). in fact I was just commenting to my friend about how, at my limits, whenever I think someone's making a play on me he really just woke up with a bigger hand.

This could have just been a crazy day for me. I was running semi hot as far as cards and was always waking up w/ a hand against resteals so a lot were getting showdown. Suprisingly too I saw them in SnG's which just sorta blew my mind. 4 times I had AA or AK up against 109-56 suited preflop w/ decent average M's.

Wierd. Full moon probably.

I too play mostly $5-$20 sng's and tourney. Though I don't see this often, I do see people calling all-ins pf with QTs and KJo. Strange games.
