1st hand-if we have a read on an opponent that he has PP,should we still push?

2nd hand-should i push from SB?

1st hand, I call that, you'll have 1710 left in your stack, pushing almost 20 BBs is not an option with AK for me at these stack levels. I'd rather see a flop, and if I miss preserve my stack.

2nd hand, push is fine, the reason is, that BB will call you with a wider range, since it's BVB, so A2 does better against his calling range. If you're dominated ... so be it, queue up for the next one :)

First hand (AKo) - I am pushing this one pretty quick. You have lots of fold equity against opp and he may well call you with hands that you dominate.

Second hand (A2s) - shove is absolutely fine in this spot, I haven't run it in SNG Wiz but I suspect it is unexploitable (+EV whether opp calls tight or loose).

Ak=AI here
A2 looks pretty good also
