    Default push or fold $6

    Should i be pushing here with this hand or should i wait for a better spot. At this stage of the tourney i was starting to get low on chips and the big stack was raising alot meaning this was one of the few times it had been folded around to me. No real reads on the blinds.

    J3 seems like a meh push, especially with no antes. You're starting to get short but you're not desperate. I'd fold without reads.

    Haven't run this in SNG Wiz but my guess would be that you should fold here, this is typically not an ATC push.

    This is marginally +cev if they call relatively tight .. Either way -ev with icm.

    The other thing is that you shouldn't really play the $5 + $1 tourneys, 20% rake is murder.

    Ive been playing a mix of $6 and $11 on party poker as i have a limited bankroll and a big downswing at the $11 would wipe me out. The $6 also seem alot softer to me than the $11. At the moment i have a 10%+ roi at the $6 and -5% at the $11. Also the time i have to play is at the weekend or on my dinner hour at work and there i just have to find the first game that starts.

    You should fold this from the BTN, but probably jam with it if you are in the SB.

    Andyjok,
    I suggest folding because the blinds are still low enough you can get something better to jam with.

    For turbos? My impression is that charging anything more than 10% for turbo games is too much and the rake should probably be a bit lower than that even.

    Yeah I agree, but it's WAY better than it was before.

    Not shoving here.
    Prob shoving w Top40%'ish' (44%)

    Have never played SNG's on PP. Just opened an acc't. on there recently, have a couple bucks on there & figured I'd be stuck playin' micro ring. Will prob give the $5's a go now w reduced rake.
