Re: SNG mid-game: opening on the small blind 15 BB
Given the ranges assumed in Slim's last post (with the graph), raise-calling with KTs is clearly a bad option (I don't know if it's strictly -$EV since I don't feel like doing the math, but I assume it probably is), while open-shoving it is clearly +$EV. This is probably (part of) the point of this whole post.
It's also got to be exploitable to shove KTs and not shove 33 and A7o, but Pudge's point that the hypothetical villain isn't going to exploit hero often (at all?) is well taken.
I still like shoving here, 'cause I play SNGs so I don't have to think. :-)
