SNGPT has this as an obvious fold for any reasonable ranges (it's in the -1% range), but I think this push is reasonable because we will be forced to call a lot of marginal hand from the BB next time. Thoughts?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t1575)
CO (t1895)
Button (t3515)
SB (t3840)
BB (t2675)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

This is an auto any two card shove for me, because the next hand will be an auto any two card call for me, so let's take advantage of any FE we might have (which is bolstered by the fact that we are pushing from UTG, even though many of us will assign a wider range to a SS UTG shover, many of the horrible players we see don't).

SNGPT says its a push if i have two of them on 22+,A2s+,A3o+,KTs+,KJo+,QJs and the other two 44+,A7s+,A9o+,KJs+

Can anyone break down the logic of the push here with that junk?
Ive been SNGing for awhile and would never push witht aht crap....but that might explain why lately ive been losing..

I think SuitedSixes nailed the logic.

If you push this UTG, some of your opponents will guess that you are pushing junk out of desperation, and call. Some of them will think you have a monster, otherwise you wouldn't be stupid enough to push UTG. Some are just waiting for you to blind out. Some just don't want to get involved. So pushing has at least a reasonable chance of picking up the blinds.

On the very next hand the tables have turned. Maybe you'll catch a monster, or maybe you'll have 72o and someone has absolutely pushed on you.

Would you rather have all your chips in with 97s and at least some chance of everyone folding, or would you rather have your chips in with a random hand and definitely go to showdown?
