Hey everybody,

at the moment I play $5 1 table sng's on titan poker, and the players there are very loose. I know that means I should tighten my first in raising range, but I find it very hard to find a good range when there are several short stacks on the table, and I'm short too. This situation occurs very often, since there are almost always 2-3 very tight opponents and the rest is pretty loose. A typical hand: 4 players have 4-7 big blinds, and 1 loose bigstack behind me. What range would you push with on for example the button?

I know I should open tight, but I'm also very short. I think that's the problem: finding the balance between me loosening up due to me being a shortstack and the loose opponents, combined with the fact that multiple opponents have the same problem.

Hi all,

Gotta shove something like Q4s+ here at least. ~60% or so is a good range here. Blinds are big.
