sorry for big ammount of threads last time but im really confused right now
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/19...-sngs-1084594/
very good player asnwered in this thread for some question :
":Very astute observation stinbag. Your absolutely right that cEV does not work w/ 15 players or less in a 45man and probably 24 players or less in 180 mans (actually there is no magic cutoff, cEV doesnt work right from the very beginning but its close enough to be a good guide for the first half of the tourney). The problem there is no great solution using SNGwiz at least that I know of. The best way you can see the problem is to put the 18 man payout structure in and mess around w/ $EV vs. cEV with 9 or 8 players left and see how much cEV and $EV diverge. This situation is somewhat equivalent to 14 left in a 45man and say 18 left in a 180 man. Do that and you'll see why you have to be tighter than cEV in SNGwiz w/ 2 tables left"
so sng wizard in 180mans with cev model works really fine and we have to find any ev+ spot from 19 to 180 ppl but when its 18 ppl and less we have hybrid our range with $ model or just play tighter then sng wiz say's in cEV
when we put 0 edge

lets say we are playing vs randoms, i put very optimal range for these 3 players in left (maybe too wide for 2-3% ) and wiz says its ev+ shove with range 95% but really ? like MUD say we have to tighter our range in spots like this listen sng wiz and make ev+ shove?
Sorry guys for stupid questions but i dont know what to do really,i just started playing 180mans without big knownlage of them and for first 10 days i had really good scores with putting volume like 100 games / day but when i started analising my game like 20-30 hand histories / day and started finding any ev+ spots like wiz say after put optimal opponents range my roi went down by like 30% and i feel im missing something
imo my game is very good until semift, and then i think im doing it wrong
so here my question any tips to improve my game in FT and SEMI FT? i dont want studing these spots in sng wiz when i dont know telling me right?
any tips please
