Party $10+1, BB was an average $10+1er playing reasonably, a bit loose-passive.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
BB (t1065)
UTG (t2120)
MP (t2650)
Button (t830)
Hero (t1335)
Preflop: Hero is SB with 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
3 folds, Hero pushes allin.
I don't have SNGPT (yet!) so here's a manual ICM calc:
$EV of folding = 0.1745
$EV of pushing and losing = 0.0441
$EV of pushing and winning = 0.2907
$EV of pushing and getting a fold = 0.1995
Assuming I have 35% equity against BB's range and opponnent calls with top 30% of hands (reasonable estimates?),
$EV of pushing: .70*.1995 + .30*(.35*.2907 + .65*.0441) = 0.178773
$EV fold: 0.1745
$EV push: 0.1788
$EV diff: 0.0043 = +0.4%
Marginal push? Should I fold it since I don't need the chips that bad? Then again, a medium suited one-gapper has reasonable equity against the BB's range.
