$2 NL HE STT Turbo: A9s in the SB w/ 1 limper, 5 BBs left

Villain was 54/12. Limps in in middle position. I thought for a while on this one and decided I was either racing or maybe even ahead (might limp weak suited ace, KQ, KJs, etc). Is this a good spot to shove?

I'd be somewhat careful with using the stats as players often tighten up quite a bit when the blinds hit 50/100 and above. In other words, has he still been playing that loose/passive lately, or was he even more loose earlier and has tightened up lately?

In any event you're in a weird situation; still 7 players with the blinds at 100/200 which, in my limited SnG experience (proly < 1000), means really tight/weak players. For me A9s is good enough to shove as I don't want to try to outwait 4 more players.

Villain had TT. Is it just me or is it ridiculously bad for him to be limping TT in that spot?????

Definitely shove there.
That hand is definitely good enough for shoving with with an M below 4.

Donks limp with all kinds of random hands in low stakes sit n gos, not necessarily to trap, and you can't just be scared they have a big pair all the time.

And yes his limping with 1010 in early position is awful, and not something decent players do there.

I like a shove here, most of the time we'll increase our stack by 50%, and when we get called, we're in good shape to double up.
