Default 11$ lvl5 Party Speed: ATs UTG - ICM says push, but I dont like it

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (7 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

saw flop|[color=Red]saw showdown</font>

CO (t2930) Average
Button (t2650) Average
SB (t530) Megadonk ultraloose on monkeyspewtilt
BB (t2350) Solid reg, tight
Hero (t3840)
MP1 (t4080) Very Tight
MP2 (t3620) Solid reg, tight

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]], T[[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]].

Hero folds.

I folded this, but ran it afterwards in SngWiz, and it came up with a push - +1.19% even.

Range to push is top 16% (55+, A8+, A5s+, KJ+, KTs+, QTs+)

Wow - that surprised me. Comments?

My comment is practice game selection. You are in an $11 with two 'solid regs' and a player that is tighter than two solid regs (is he sitting out?)

Im sure you can wait a minute or two and find a nice warm game full of donks.

First of all this is breakeven with teh table calling at 11%

Giving the 'solid regs' a range of 99+ AQ+, sb a 50% range (kind of irrelevant) and button and CO anywhere from 5-100% this is a push

Scotty&gt;&gt; I do table-select very much, and my excuse for sitting with two regs at the 11s is technical. I don't normally sit down with several regulars. Some times I take a table or two with a regular, because games are filling up very slowly.

However, I am having problems with a lot of notes on Party randomly disappearing (this is a known problem), so after I start a game, I sometimes find a regular at my table when PAHUD kicks in, who I have made a note on earlier, but is now gone.

Did you have SB on like 80%? I would be tempted to fold because of that, but looking back it says that this is a horrible fold against any reasonable range for any of the players. I guess the others being tight + far from the money means you should shove wide.
