Late stages, Lots of players left

[eugmac]

I find this spot incredibly frustrating. There's 6 players left, everybody has < 10 BB.

Hand 1 (A5o) - this isn't a good shove from UTG. Even if they call tight it is -EV. OMG that is an awful call by opp for half his stack!

6 J BU (M = 7.64; f+f+F) - if the blinds have been tight I would shove this one, particularly because you have them covered.

Hand 2 (JTs) - definitely shove back preflop. As played, postflop is fine I think. You could consider shoving the flop but that loses value relative to making a more standard bet I think.
