sngpt plays and...

Hey All,
I'm learning to use Eastbays sng poker analyzer (it's great,btw) and I have some questions on a few specific hands. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Hand #1

ICM tells me to push this, but I was on the bubble,and didn't want to bust out.It was +1% set at aggressive.
No read. I don't have a read for most of my hands,unless something is glaringly obvious about the other player.That may change with time though.
Push or fold?? /images/graemlins/mad.gif

I realize that most of the time I should listen to what the software tells me to do, but I also realize there are exceptions, and I don't really have a clue of what they are.

Thanks for your time and expertise.

[TT_fold]

I would push both FWIW. In fact, +1% is probably a worst-case scenario, since in hand 1 the player may play a bit tighter than eastbay's aggressive settings.

[microbet]

Without reads I push both. I believe A is for average, not aggressive.

when you fix this, you will make more money. consider: it's the bubble, your opponents don't want to bust out.

Good advice, and it only took 10 minutes to get. How awesome is that. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

i impress even myself sometimes.

these other guys are pretty good too.

Folding in hand 1 shows a complete lack of understanding relative hand strength HU and proper bubble strat. This is a big mistake.

Hand 2 is usually a push, but not nearly as crystal clear as the first hand. It probably a moderate mistake at worst to not push the J4.

edit: also the preset ranges are pretty terrible to use in these spots.

What ranges do you recommend for PP 20+2s at night?

Well thats the trick isn't it. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[eastbay]

I'm considering changing the buttons to numbers 1,2,3,4, and making them default to nothing, and making the user fill in.

No default is good for everything, and people seem to get a little too married to the defaults.

Now you can put %'s in anyway, the defaults don't help all that much I think.
