Poker Stars, $5 + $0.50 NL Hold'em Tournament, 200/400 Blinds, 25 Ante, 4 Players

BTN: 1,435
Hero (SB): 5,020
BB: 6,430
UTG: 615

Pre-Flop: (700) Q♣ 6♣ dealt to Hero (SB)

According to Nash I can push here 38,80% (which includes Q2s+ A9o+) if BB will only call 7,10% 88+ ATs+ AJo+.. just wondering if it's ok to be more passive (pass this kind of small edges) in this kind of spots as I'm ITM very soon and BB might call slightly looser than nash (e.g. 55+ AT+ KQs)..

Reads on villain?

If villain is a fish he will call even wider than AT. Probably even A6 or KQ. If it is a reg or a rock then
then for sure you can scoop the blinds here but at this BI level and with 2 short stacks around I don't
mind folding here.

An unknown BB can snap us off pretty disgustingly wide in a $5 SnG, I'd fold here. Things like KJo start looking really good to a fish when it's a bvb situation, and if he's calling us that wide this push starts to get very very bad very fast. Just let UTG bust out, then start pushing wider.

That said, with tight/good reads on BB I'd shove here. Just folding as a default vs randoms known loose opponents.
edit; lol cool... if you take out the 25 chip ante Nash changes all the way from Q2s back to Q8s.. ♦

This... BB isn't gonna call Nash here because he's probably awful. So just play tight.
