6.50 Pushes/Calls/Folds

[relativity_x]

I ran the following hands in SNGWIZ, and the program disagrees with all of my moves. However, I think I like what I'm doing. Can you explain why you agree or disagree with me?

HAND 01
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (3 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB (t3945)
Hero (t8025)
SB (t1530)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t8025</font>

comments: SNGW says fold. I think this is a push with ATC.

HAND 02
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (3 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

SB (t4205)
Hero (t1325)
Button (t7970)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t4180</font>, Hero calls t1100 (All-In).

comment: SNGW says fold. I think he's pushing any two cards. I don't want to be in the small blind and have to fold to the big stack's push. I'll take my chances against the other short stack. I think Jack high is good there 50% of the time?

HAND 03
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

comment: I'm in bad shape with 5 bb. I know if 33 is getting called down I'm a coinflip, but it's a made hand. Fold this?

HAND 04
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t930</font>

comment: I know the blinds are more likely to call me here especially the BB, but I'm the first one in the pot and only two spots from the BB which will cripple me. Easy Push right despite my lack of FE?

i push the hand with 33, other than that i like folds on the others

Hand 1 is not bad if BB is tight.

Hand 2: You think he's pushing ATC, so you want to call with a hand that is &lt;50% against ATC? you can't beat a random hand man.

Hand 3: shove 33 here.

Hand 4: I don't like shoving into a big stack with this hand. maybe if it was suited. But, it's not terrible.

Regardless of the above opinions of mine, if you plug in a range for your opponents, and sngwhiz says it is -EV, why wouldn't you believe it? maybe your ranges are wrong, I dunno.

1: push whole day long
2: devin is totally right.. Q7 is the average hand, you're worse than that with J4o
3: do it the same
4: push this whole day long too
you still got &gt;4bb, you got some FE and desperately need chips
co, first in, close to 5bb, 6 ppl left - shove atc for me.
