6 max SNG on the bubble.
Blinds 75/150
BB: t1500
BTN: t1500
Hero (SB): t6000
Pre Flop: (t225) Hero is SB with Q
2
1 fold, Hero raises to t1675
Say I want to abuse the 2 smaller stack, the BB decides to put an end to this and start spite calling me with 40% of his hands (a mistake on his part), is he hurting himself and helping the BTN? What is the net result to me if he I am shoving 80% (which SNGwiz says is wrong)? Is the benefits as following: BTN>BB>SB?

Should I make any strategy adjustment when playing the non-turbo 18s727s on Full Tilt comparing to their turbo counterparts? I think in a nutshell it is playing very tight early and push/fold late, too. Or am I wrong here?
Thx

Thanks for the Skype and IRC links!
Another Q>
In HEM, I am running at 14% ROI, albeit only after 180 games, but if I click the EV adjusted button the thing tells me I am at -2% ROI. The red line confirms this as its below $0. I checked the FAQ section for HEM but I am not sure I get it.
Basically, does this mean I am running hot and that I am really losing money instead of winning?
Thanks.

Why does HEM say that this is -$EV situation?
BTN shoves wide here.

The redline indicates that you ran hot over those 180 games when you (or others) were allin.

however, spacegravy had like 200 buyin downswings at the 45mans (turbo) iirc.

well, it depends on which hand you were up against.
The $EV Diff column just gives you the difference between what you HAVE won and what you SHOULD HAVE won.
e.g. in your case you won 1166 chips and $16.29 (equity) MORE than you should have. If i had to guess i'd say you had something like 60% equity?
you'll always win more than you should if you win tho (unless villain gets it in drawing dead).
