    Default Push or fold?

    Do you push of fold this one?
    My M is about 5.5 but the blinds were getting near.

    SNG Wiz says 50%-50% what about you?

    You need to manually set the ranges in SNG Wiz, the default is way too loose IMO. That said, I shove this - it's one of those pushes that gets more +EV the looser your opps are, and at a $5.50 I would expect them to be loose indeed.

    Actually, they were pretty tight! We were 8 after 30 mins of play!
    I've tighten the most reasonable possible range SNG Wiz and it gives around 50%-50% ...

    BTW, this is a turbo $6.5 so I suppose they should be even looser? So I'm happy with my push Although as these opps where very tight, I think I shoud have folded ...

    seems like a really close fold, but i suck at sngs. I think you have a better shot if you wait for the blinds

    Actually, SNG Wiz by default has an EV of around +0.40. When I've tighten the opps range it gives me 0,09-0,15. Therefore, I've mentioned 50%-50% as it was nearly 0 EV.

    im gonna have to mess around with wiz.

    thing with wiz is that i manually set everything which can get players in trouble as there are so many options.

    I'm confident there will be bigger edges in the future so I'd fold.
