Shoving range. AA,KK,QQ,JJ,TT, AK AQ AJ AT.
Playing to tight can have that problem of running short.
Find who you can pick on at the table.
If the games are under 5$ STTs you can just about steal every time your on the button. When it's folded to you.
One key i would like to make, that stealing will help keep your M in the range that's safe. Also even with an M=10 you can still do a 3X raise just remember to add 1BB per limper..
Sorry but I totally disagree with this ^ (which part of it?... umm.. pretty much all of it).
Firstly, when playing SNG's we're referring to #of bb's (M is rarely used to discuss SNG play). If we're playing on a site where there's antes in STT/SNG (ie.
pokerstars) then we adjust our shoving range by about 1bb.
We can profitably open shove ALOT wider than is suggested here (I mean
ALOT).
Raise/folding with <10bb's is terrible.
... add 1bb per limper?? For sure in early level play but in end game, when we're on bubble?? a) who's limping? b) if you've got 10bb's and there's a limper & you're playing your hand... you're never raising 3bb+1bb.. you're shoving or folding in pretty much every case
Shoving is also player-read dependant (ie. if you see a guy who's calling raises in early-mid levels with A-rag..... this is often the same kinda player who is calling wide in late game play (but not always obv, sometimes this type of player does the opposite... loose in early-mid levels.. tight in late levels). Something to consider... do we figure villain to be ICM aware (or ICM dumb).. & if they are ICM aware... do we figure that they think we're ICM aware?
I've got a couple of push charts that I've used in the past (& helped to understand +EV shoves a bunch more in late game SNG play),.. one of them coming from a guy who's play I highly respect (has been on top of leaderboards quite often).
I could give you a couple of examples here.....
CO (8bb)
Top 28.5% (22+,A2+,KT, K9s, QTQ9s,JT,J9s)
CO (12bb)
Top 8.5% (66+,AT+,A9s+)
BTN (8bb)
Top 44% (22+,A2+,K6,K4s,Q7,Q5s.....76s)
BTN (6bb)
top60% (22+,A2,K2,Q2,J2,T6,T4s..... 53s)
BTN (5bb)
atc top 100% (atc = any two cards)
more examples?... okay then with 5 players left (first to act is HJ (hi-jack) which would be utg with 5 left)
HJ (10bb)
Top7.5% (77+,AJ+)
HJ (8bb)
Top 8.5% (66+, AT+,A9s+) & suited broadways
HJ (6bb)
Top 28.5% (see above or just punch in 28.5% on Pokerstove)... fold AXo hands though!!!
OP.. is this what you're looking for?
