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. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

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?? [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

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.

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.

Re: sngpt plays and...
 

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. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

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?

Re: sngpt plays and...
 

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.
