Default Bubble hand with 10s on the button($55)

I'm not much of an ICM guy but this one seemed like a fold. I've really been struggling with my bubble play recently(getting stupidly aggro against big stacks) and am just trying to make sure I'm back on the right track.

***** Hand History for Game 3001580306 *****
200/400 TOURNEY TEXAS HOLD'EM GAME TABLE (NL) (TOURNAMENT 17235757) - TUE NOV 08 04:31:16 EST 2005
Table Table 67017 (Real Money) -- Seat 5 is the button
Total number of players : 4
Seat 1: SMELLY_FISH (1370)
Seat 2: glibglub (3875)
Seat 5: krasni24 (2415)
Seat 6: LowBillMill (2340)
LowBillMill posts small blind (100)
SMELLY_FISH posts big blind (200)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to krasni24 [ Td, Ts ]
glibglub raises (600) to 600
krasni24 folds.
LowBillMill folds.
SMELLY_FISH folds.
** Summary **
Main Pot: 900
SMELLY_FISH balance 1170, lost 200 (folded)
glibglub balance 4175, bet 600, collected 900, net +300
krasni24 balance 2415, didn't bet (folded)
LowBillMill balance 2240, lost 100 (folded)

Also, how do I get hands I dig up from PT to work in the hand converter? Thanks.

These are exactly the situations I have to analyze more with SNGPT! I do not have it here at work.

I guess, barring any screaming reads, it's a fold.

I'd at the very least call. You should have a fair bit of FE here if you push too. Depends on reads, though. But TT on the bubble is huge and the small stack still has 6bb, so is nowhere near out of it yet.

What's this SNGPT people are always talking about here? Some PT addon or what?

Wait, he did not push! So, he could fold on a push! Not very likely but still possible. I think this makes it very read dependent (does he usuall know what he is doing?, does he seem to know about when it is better to push than to bet?). It might be a push, after all.

SitnGo Power Tools. You need to buy it from Eastbay. It's on the pricy side but well worth it (provided you really use it to study scenarios [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]).

Sure if he open pushed I'd probably fold.. that would be a no-brainer. I would say he needs to fold around 25% of the time given his likely range - but that's a guesstimate and I'll do the maths properly later.

Yep. I push on the assumption that he will fold >50% of the time. Which would make me the new chipleader and able to bully bully bully.

Obviously if he open pushed this is an easy fold.

just so im clear on this situation....a fold would be better than a call here...i understand that calling here just to fold to an undesirable flop would be very bad...but i just cant get over the fact i might have the best hand here a lot more than i dont.....
