Push-botting is extremely different from weak-tight play. There's very little in common. For instance, in almost every situation, when you're short-stacked and it's folded to you in the SB, you can push with any two cards against the BB. Even if he calls with 50% of hands (which is rare and includes hands like T8s), you can still push 80% and have the push be significantly +EV than folding. Pushing 80% (or more) of your hands there is far from weak-tight.
And anyways, push-botting is only when you have a small stack relative to the blinds, so it's not the default strategy.

Well I'm playing 100 $6.50 Stars Turbos in groups of 6-9 at the moment, and will then move up to play 100x $15+1 ones, without using SNG PT or ICM. You can win $20 by guessing my ROI at the end of the first 100 in another thread.
I guess we'll see but my gut feeling is that even in turbos there is still enough time to play a bit of poker and that my push-botting once the blinds get very high using my exerience and having read up on the SC numbers isn't going to see me hugely behind someone who is 'power-tooled' up...

ICM = independent chip modeling. It's the math behind the SNG-PT calculations, basically.

I rarely come here anymore because i only play fr cash games and dabble in Mtts. I've quit single table sngs totally. I think the future is 6max cash games and MTTs.
