Late stages of a micro SnG, I am way ahead of the other stacks. ICMizer says to shove in these situations. In this first one, it folds over to me on the BTN and I can sort of hear the strategy to shove on the blinds cause most of the time they have nothing. But if they have something, I'd like a little more equity than I would have with 67o, which is probably around 30% against two random hands, right? Yes, if they call and I lose I would still have like 44bb but I've doubled up a short stack right before the money. Is it worth the risk?
NL Holdem $3+$0.30 (200.00BB)
SB ($1853)
BB ($2394)
CO ($2442)
HERO ($11311)
Dealt to Hero: 6♠ 7♥
CO Folds, HERO Folds, SB Raises To $1853 (allin), BB Folds
In this 2nd hand, ICMizer says to shove 57s UTG. Again, maybe 20-25% equity against 3 random hands and yes, I would still have 45bb if the biggest remaining stack called but the same risk:reward question remains. As you can see, I would have doubled up the smallest stack (who is also a very good player and didn't want head's up against him) but was my fold incorrect?
