    This is essentially a spin and go without the bonus prize pool modifiers/limiters.

    my standard in spins is to shove all pocket pairs pre especially small pocket pairs to realize pre flop equity. Post flop with low pocket pairs you're going to be folding to almost any aggression and you don't have the stack depth to call to see a flop . You also don't have the stack depth to cbet the flop without pot committing yourself and if you are called on an unconnected rainbow board you are likely to be dead in the water.

    online low stakes you'll also get called by enough junk to realize your equity and i'm guessing that this home game could well be the same.
    You can also get better to fold pre like 22-99 , ace rag, k rag maybe 56s-qjs and if the non pairs do call we have decent equity

    one qualifier is that the blind progression wasnt mentioned . if its a slow blind progression then you might want to reconsider as spin and gos are hypers or if you aren't rolled for the strategy you should be asking why you are playing in the first place .
