Any idea if Stars/FTP still primarily operate in USD over this period?

When I said 5% I meant take what sng wizard gives you and shove 5% more. From what I've seen you can probably tighten up the default calling ranges that program gives tooeg - utg +1 in the screenshot jeff posted - says he's calling off 8.7% which is 88+,ATs+,KTs+,QJs,AJo+,KQo. I don't think many people call off KTs and maybe a few other hands in that range here.edit - and the BB - 22% = 66+,A3s+,K7s+,Q8s+,J9s+,T9s,A8o+,KTo+,QTo+,JTo. I doubt even renrad who is a decent reg from memory is calling off all of those hands..

some of us work on Mondays

He's a real donkey. Plays all the A-r s for any amount of bets preflop

Have a good one, Tim!

For sure but tiny stacks like this at a FT warp the difference between $EV and chip EV a lot and that's all that matters.I'd probably almost always shove this in game anyway but I wouldn't be surprised if it's not theoretically optimal. - that said, people call way tighter than optimal so you can get away with shoving more than you should.The thing that most influences my range here is the nature of the BB. Partly if he can easily afford the call or not, partly if he's a decent player. You can get away with a lot more against weaker opponents. There are rare opponents who won't fold 75o here

This is really close. I'm never folding 55 and probably not 44. 33 and 22 are reasonably lower in the overall ranking of hands to merit possibly folding them here. Easiest to get someone to run it through Sng wizard then add about 5% more hands since that program is stupidly nitty. I also think that by default it will massively overestimate how often the tiny stack gets it in here.Interesting note: Hands that are better (by pokerstove ranking of hands) than 22:

wow is this true?
