Final Pot: t1425

I had SNG Wizard up at the same time as i was playing this tourney as soon as the hand started i was punching in the chip counts of the 4 players at the table including myself, and the blind level which was 200/400/25. As i pressed ok it said to push all, so i pushed my 96o thinking this was +ev.

After the hand i reviewed my hand history in SNG Wizard and it suggested to fold my 96o! What was the right play, and why contradicting advice from the same scenario? One realtime, one hindsight. Maybe i punched in the chip values wrong? But i had it on "auto-complete last stack size".

w/o running it in any icm program, I would muck and hope to get better than a rag 9 hi. BB is calling for sure if you shove.

What he said, BB is never folding, I'd wait and hope that we get some hand that has something going for it very quickly and/or SB self-destructs

Re: $1.20 - Bubble - Too loose a push?
 

No one is ever folding for 2 times the BB, especially the chip leader.

Pray like Jerry Yang for Q high or better and push push push

Cheers guys. Any of you know anything about the contradicting advice i was getting when i ran SNG Wizard during the tourney and once again after it?

If you are going to use an ICM tool in real time, you are better off with Sit n Go End Game Tools - it automatically reads the hand while it is underway, all you have to do is click a button to get the decision.
