just a little $5 6-max STT. Villian is 48/24 over 154 hands (only table i've played him at and 2 players dropped out very quickly in this tourny, then everybody tightened up a bit. He's 19% in Blind Steal Attempts.

Last 6 hands he has folded pre. 7th hand previous, he shoved his stack pre and we folded. I read him as somebody who shoves any decent Ace or King, but not totally sure. He folded to almost every c-bet i sent his way and hardly ever saw him steal the blinds.

That being said, I called him, but now I'm not sure that was the right choice. Or am I overthinking, as I have a mid suited ace shorthanded, he's shortstacked (heck, we both are) and should call? Or maybe it's a hand I bet into an unraised pot, but fold if somebody open shoves (i bet and he shoves, I have to call, i think)?

If he isn't a shove type than its propably a fold because he won't push with A2 for 9xBB , if he is than it's snap call.

by 'isn't a shove' you mean he isn't prone to shove after shove? What, in your mind, qualifies somebody as a 'shove type'?

This is why they created sng wiz. You made the right call if you where correct in assuming he would shove any ace wich with those stats seems highly likely. I have the edge diff set to .15 and it says if hes shoving 21%+ wich is any pair, a3o+,and suited ace, and pretty much any paint that its a call. But a8s is right at the breaking point anything less and it says its a fold.
