Re: If a spot is marginally +EV, do you shove regardless?
There's a lot of spots where shoving seems marginal when it's actually very good/bad. This is the problem with doing ICM stuff only to the hand in question without thinking about how your actions in the hand affects the rest of the tourney.
1. really depends on how deep you are (and by how much you cover) and how deep the others are. If K5s is only a marginal shove there you're probably pretty deep and raising might be better.
2. is sort of the same thing. If you're getting walks all the time and table is really tight you're gonna get better than +.1% sngpt edges a lot so it's probably not worth shoving this.
But if even after considering things couple of hands forward and what sippin said you're sure it's a +EV even by 0.05% you should make it cos well it's +EV.
