I'm not sure if this should be in tournament or sng post. But I was wandering if anyone has any helpful tips for playing these.
I here that they have a relatively poor field, whilst not being near as swingy as 180 mans.
from my first 2, i have a few perhaps simple spots...
At this point there are 11 left, and BB was 17/0. Is this the type of shove I should be making? When I have him covered etc. Are there any tips for the really low buyin tournaments?

BTN: t2919 M = 4.03
Hero (SB): t5979 M = 8.25
BB: t4262 M = 5.88
UTG: t10366 M = 14.30
CO: t4536 M = 6.26
Pre Flop: (t725) Hero is SB with 7♦ J♠
3 folds, Hero raises to t5954 all in, BB calls t3837 all in
Flop: (t8599) 2♥ 4♠ 8♣ (2 players - 2 are all in)
Turn: (t8599) Q♠ (2 players - 2 are all in)
River: (t8599) T♣ (2 players - 2 are all in)
This is another question about shoving. Can I afford to pass up this type of spot in the hope that a better one comes up, especially in lower stakes 45 mans. I assume it is marginally +ev, but perhaps I could find a better spot. There were about 25 people left. (Ps is there anyway on HEM 2 to find out exactly how many people were left?)

My other problem is calling range. I have tended to be folding some marginal hands I think.
Should I be folding when there are 3 way ai in general?
