Default $27: 5 table MTT ITM w/ JTo from SB

So I ran this in SNGW and was shocked that it said this is a fold.

Anyone know why?

My guess is that it is due to the top heavy payout structure which is 1=31%,2=22%,3=17%,4=13%,5=9%,6=6%,7=3%

Your thoughts?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t1600 with t75 antes (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t6856)
UTG+1 (t1075)
CO (t7580)
Button (t14154)
Hero (t13118)
BB (t24717)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

its ok bc he really is going to want a big hand to put his chips at risk. i have no prob w it. the reason they say fold is stacks of others but u are short too so id do the same as you

What is his calling range?
SNGW makes a lot of mistakes. This seems incredibly standard.

I always start w/ 25% b/c I get looked up so often w/ any ace. But I actually think he (and the table for that matter) was pretty tight as no one was really calling any shoves.

I don't think he calls here with "any ace", push seems fine.

I can't imagine this ever being anything else than a push.

"A little push push in the bush!"

Yeah, if you start doubting yourself in situations like this because of SNGW, you're going to find yourself costing yourself a lot of equity in the future. Very standard push.
