SAGE system HU. Seems good, but I have one problem with it.

firstly, if you dont know what it is then read this: http://www.cardplayer.com/magazine/article/15250

what if the sb hasnt a clue and is only pushing very tight. O.k. so in the long run he will lose because he'll get blinded out. But surely at that particular time when he does push, your calling range in bb has to be tighter then what SAGE suggests to make it +EV. So don't you have to adjust for that, and can't always follow it religeously?

SAGE works with R<=10 which is M<=7.5, in other words, he will blind off in 7.5 rounds.

If your opponent decides to push with nothing but aces, you should actually encourage him to do so and you may even call him if he does. Chances for him to get aces often enough are slim. Every time he folds his stack gets smaller and even if he manages to pick up aces, he might double up for a total of 2 chips.
