Default ($24) Two resteal spots with TT

=== Hand #1 ===

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t25/t50
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1450
UTG+1: t1440
MP1: t2940
MP2: t2175
CO: t680
Button: t1410
SB: t1950
Hero: t1455

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
5 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises to t150</font>, SB folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t1455</font>...

The villain is a multitabling regular with 4% ROI, 11/7 8-handed. What is your pushing range here?


=== Hand #2 ===

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t50/t100
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t845
UTG+1: t1725
MP1: t2280
MP2: t2530
CO: t735
Button: t2550
Hero: t1480
BB: t1355

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t200</font>, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t1480</font>...

The villain has been playing pretty tight. I have no clue how he's got his stack, though... :/ What is your pushing range here?

the first one is ok, but im not enthuasistic about it, i think this is about the marginal hand to do this.

the second one seems marginal if he really was tight. you push 1500 to win 350, if he has a better pair hes calling and you lose around 60% of your stack in ev which is 900.
so if he calls you with better pairs around 30% of the time this is marginal. better pairs have around 2% likelihood preflop, ak around 1.2% so he needs to raise like 6% of the time with worse hands preflop for this to be good.

Hand 2 is standard.
Hand 1 you are too deep for. Probably call. I don't think three bet call a shove is that bad.
