I have a note on villain that says sucks, but sucks usually means giant retard callbox, I usually note people who shove stupidly differently.

doesn't seem like you really need to risk that many chips in that spot. I would fold.

Looks like an easy call, if he has AA or KK, then you have confirmation on your note. It's so often AJ, AQ, AK or some middle pair that doesn't want to play post flop against stacks that will scare him.

7-handed, you can't be close enough to the bubble for the payout structure to over-ride the fact that you have way the best of the pot equity against anything but very tight push/call ranges. Call. I'd weight "difficult" hands heavily in david's 18 BB open-pushing ranges, so like JJ, TT, and AQ there a lot of the time.

I think it is close. Would probably fold here, but call with AKs maybe. Even if we are far away from the bubble we still have to remember that the chips from 5000-10000 are worth far less than the chips from 1000-5000. I don't know if having a really huge stack for the rest of the SNG and domiate it will outweigh this?

I definitely call. First AA/KK is unlikely so you probably flip at worse and if you do lose, you still have 6bb.

Running it through SNGwiz with:
Pusher on: AJ+, ATs+ and 66+ and removing AA and KK from his range.
Caller on: Top20%
Gives call as -1.26, which is not taking into account overcall from BB. (You should only call with JJ+). Could this be correct?

Button instacalled does that change anything?
Also is it just me or it seems like a lot of sngwiz results seem really wrong.

grunch: yea, I would call. You're not worried about losing to shorty. You just need to beat the initial raiser (is he the one who sucks?)

I doubt he is shoving JJ-AA, so you very likely ahead of him, and if he has a PP, your a slight dog with a lot of overlay from shorty.
