Hero (SB)????

What should my move be now?

SNG power tools says easy push.

[TStokes]

I agree I am pushing here

[burgi]

Ok, that is what I did. I pushed and lost to 78o with him getting a straight. Ok, **** happens. Next hand is this one:

SB (t1678)
BB (t2714)
UTG (t2500)
Hero (t1108)

SB posts small blind (200)
BB posts big blind (400)
UTG folds.
Hero ????

What would you do now?

[Voltron87]

very very very clear push.

Folding either hand would be horrible. Don't even think about it. Just slide your chips toward the middle. Variance and getting called happens. Don't EVER fold either of these hands.

You should quit playing SNG's if you fold these and think it's correct. (not really, just trying to get in my point)

[burgi]

thanks for confirming this for me! I did push both of these hands and of course got called both times and lost both times.
Then, some guys comes around and just says that I'm on tilt and stuff like that, which is the reason why I wanted to get a second opinion from you guys, since I also thought that these were the correct plays. Thanks for your help!

[Voltron87]

sometimes you have the perfect steal opportunity and they have aces. nothing you can do about it, it happens.

[jgunnip]

damn I think you're on three of my tables right now...

[burgi]

yeah, that could be. What is your name at PP?
