Hero (t3310)
BB (t3585)
UTG (t4515)
Button (t2090)

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises to t3410, 1 fold.

Final Pot: t3610

Villian is tight so I had been doing this pretty often. I decided to run this through SNGPT to see what gives and it looks like I may need to reconsider other options.

Push hands: 88+,AJ+,KQs (7%)

Villian is tighter player who will probably wait for 66+, ATo+. Should I wait for situations where I have BB covered?

Thanks for any ideas.

Against a tight player push ATC, especially if you have been "quiet" during this sng and have not got caught with junk.

i dunno, 200 is really not worth it, i raise here to maybe 600, definetely exploitable by good players but it seems to work quite frequently

Shoving is +EV if you really think he's calling 66,AT+. Raising is probably more +EV, shoving 17bb on the bubble when you're 3rd usually requires a very strong hand and then shoving means you lose a lot of value. Limp or raise if BB won't bully you too much, raising is better.

I get SB 89%, BB 7.8% for the NE (edge 0%). What did I do wrong? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I'd make a standard raise here instead.

Thanks for the feedback. The big thing Im starting to understand is that I have to do something in this spot besides fold.

I have been reading up on bubble play here and on the web and Im trying to be a bit more aggro when the situation presents itself.

In the past I would try to fold my way into the money. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I also have NO problem with calling here and betting any flop.

Finnisher - for the NE are you just running ranges back and forth in SNGPT? I've been looking for an easier way to get to these.

Ya just back and forth but with a value between the previous and new %.
