Poker Stars $35+$3 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t300/t600 Blinds + t50 - 4 players

BB: t3560 M = 3.24
CO: t1295 M = 1.18
BTN: t2160 M = 1.96
Hero (SB): t6485 M = 5.90

Pre Flop: (t1100) Hero is SB with 5 5
1 fold, BTN raises to t2110 all in, Hero calls t1810

He had been shoving a lot and I assume these shoves were +EV although he never showed down.

I looked at this hand as a good opportunity to see what he was shoving in this situation coupled with the facts that I could afford it and I was getting nice odds to take out the best player.

Sometimes, I guess it would be ok to fold and keep owning.

Anyhow he could push 75% if he put me and the BB on 15% which is reasonable considering I am generally nitty and there is a short stack.

This was very surprising to me because I would normally just wait for the shorty to be all in first if I was in his shoes. Is this a leak on my part?

My call was good as long as he was pushing anything over 15%, which according to Wiz he should be. If I was in his shoes, I'd be pushing like 12%, which seems bad now, but this would have made the call with 55 bad.

Did I find a leak, or should we stray from Wiz here?

if you double check the ranges/overcall ranges and are satisfied with the diff% it gives you than you should base your decision of whether to push or fold based on what you estimate your current edge in the sng vs your estimated edge in future hands..
..i do not see why you should ever stray from wiz..

A DECENT button shouldn't be on 30%!! imo. 55's a snap for me tho. Keeping bubble alive's gay-ver rated

5/5 should be good against a decent players range here. They're not shoving that wide but wide enough to make 5/5 a +EV call.

I don't imagine he's shoving too wide but I'd still snap here.

Not sure I like this here. Venetian is definitely a player who is aware of CO being significantly shorter as well as his own table imagine prior to this spot.
If I would call it would be the bottom of my range here, but actually think I'm more likely to fold.
