Hero yells 'push a dooby doo' like a SNGPT loony and is all-In [1110]

BB liked to limp a lot of pots although I hadn't seen him make any questionable calls in raised pots. This was the first opportunity I had got to open a pot from the SB and being nearly equal stack sizes I figured that he wouldn't be calling unless he had a big hand. Looked like a good spot.

Ran this through SNGPT calling range pretty loose (44+,A5s+,A8o+,KJ+,QJs) and got +1.4%.

I only single table so I am able to review all of my games with SNGPT to spot any missed +EV opportunities and check my actual pushes.

I think I am picking reasonable +EV push situations but I do find that I am crashing and burning if not on the first push then almost always on the second one.

Old me would have folded this hand. New me (armed with SNGPT) recognizes what looks likes a +EV situation and pushes thus finding himself firing up a new SnG shortly afterwards and questioning his recent push.

To be honest my recent 3 months results are less than breakeven and New me is starting to wonder why Old me went away.

These seemingly +EV pushes just aren't translating into profitable results although I am stubbornly persevering.

Intuitively I think that I picked a good spot to push. Did I?

Not sure if this is correct or not but in general if the blinds add up to 25% of my stack I'm pushing if folded to me in the SB
