Bubble AJ facing Shove (6.50)

[DetroitHusling101]

All players have been shove happy. I'm pretty sure his range on the button is just about ATC here. None of the players are severly short stacked so i'm confused if i just fold and continue picking up blinds or call knowing im probally a pretty decent favorite to win this hand. I have him covered but if i lose i only have about 700 left.

SB (t3640)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, J.
1 fold, Button raises to t3045, 1 fold, Hero Hits request time.

If he's shoving more than 35% (22+,A2+,K5o+,K2s+,Q9o+,Q8s+,J9s+), call.

Thanks....Im gonna attempt to look at the ICM calculations and try and solve one of these myself. Since im figuring taipan to drop by and reply to this post with "you should try solving this using the ICM calculations in the SNG Tactics Digest and find out for yourself"
lol....

Hmmmm nevermind. The ICM post is for calling a shove after raising. Is they are way to find out if i should be calling a shove from the BB ????

[CoccoBill]

It works the same for shoving over and calling a push, makes no diference ICM-wise who raised first.

Well i did good solving step 1 and 2. Basic addition and subraction. And i didn't do bad entering the numbers into the ICM calculator. But 3 just confused the hell out of me.

If you want to post what confused you, I'll try to help.

But seriously, you really should buy SNG Wiz ASAP, forget about when you move to the $11s, you need it now.

Follow all those little hyperlinks in this post and check out their website. Suffice to say that in order to maximise your ROI at SNGs, either SNG Wiz or SNGPT is essential.

Do you know any hands he has shown up with recently when shoving? If he's been push happy and/or especially if he's shown up with a low Ax a lot then I call.
