    Default pushing from the SB

    Ok i've been going through hand histories, and also just making up situations in the sng power tool. Basically if the blinds are at 50/100 or higher, you have less than 10bb's and you have some form of folding equity, it tells me that it is +EV to push any two. Do you generally do this? When will you push any two from the small blind folded around to you?

    It was a bit expensive but i'm learning alot from this thing.

    I push any two when:
    When I have the BB covered
    When there is a micro stack

    It IS a very sexy tool.

    What does folding equity entail? What are the calling ranges you have set for the BB?

    himself fucker.
    I push from the SB when it's +EV. Which it frequently is.

    I spend most of the SnG establishing that I auto fold my SB.

    I set it to maniac calling range just to be sure. 22+,A2s+,A3o+,KT. Your EV only increases as players tighten up, and most players are not that loose with what they will call with. Also, by folding equity i mean you have a stack that can do some damage to someone, not necessarilly having them covered, but being able to cripple them.
