$3.25 NL HE Turbo: +$EV to shove here?

poker stars $3.00+$0.25 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t600/t1200 Blinds + t75

BTN: t5805 M = 2.58
SB: t8515 M = 3.78
BB: t13275 M = 5.90
UTG: t2900 M = 1.29
Hero (MP): t15320 M = 6.81
CO: t21685 M = 9.64

Pre Flop: (t2250) Hero is MP with 5:heart: 5:spade:
1 fold, Hero?]

Final table; the prize is structured:
1: $42
2: $30
3: $21
4: $15
5: $12
6: $9
7: $6

Not sure if shoves here are +$EV. Can SnG Wizard work out the ICM for tournaments other than STT?

It effectively is a SnG just with lots of places paid as it's final table so SnGWizard should work AFAIK :)

To my understanding, SnG Wizard assumes that the top 3 people will get paid, 4th will get nothing. So, it wouldn't be the same

You can input the differant pay structures. It should already have the 45 man sng in there.

As far as the shove goes, we can probably take an alternate route, we're probably too early position to just open shove, we're currently 2nd in chips, we can either come in for a raise, or just fold it. Since most of the guys behind have great re-steal size stacks, i'm probably just folding this.

This is a very standard fold. If the two big stacks had like 5k or something it might be a little more interesting but shoving 55 from MP with two guys who can eliminate or severely cripple us still in is unwise.

When SnG Wiz sends me the darn activation key I can plug the numbers in but wouldn't my opponents have to call fairly tightly here due to the short guy about to be ripped apart by the blinds? Or don't enough players think like this at the micros for this reasoning to be +EV?

Your shoving through a lot of people, one of them has you outchipped, do a quick anaylsis of the risk vs your reward and you can tell without Sng wiz, if this shove is a good one or not. Go through all the possibilities that can happen here if you shove this.
