Pretty sure I shove without much thought. What kind of calling ranges you have?

I put most of them on 44+,A7s+,A8o+,KJs+,KQ.

Are you shoving because yo think they are a bit tighter (+EV) or because posting the BB next hand is a disaster?

Well, I do think they are a big tighter (especially MP and the button). But even if this push is slightly -EV, it's probably less -EV than whatever you're going to wind up doing in the next few hands if you fold. I think this is one of those spots where SngPT overvalues your current position.

I usually push in this position so I feel the negative .5 sngpt value is suspect.

Exactly. Now I feel stupid for even questioning this in the first place.

Or maybe it is I who should feel stupid [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Not being in the game, my thought is that you are judging your opponents to much like how you yourself play.

I tend to fold that UTG, I stick to SNGPT even if it is close.
I really doubt at that point opponents would adjust their calling range vs UTG push.
