I play alot of turbos nowadays. Here are two hands im not sure what to do. The math is one thing, but how important is it to not call of your stack when?

Both hands are 82$ 6man Hyperturbo on stars.

 

Hand 1:

 

1k/2k Blinds I have 17k in BB with 102o

Button shove something like 5,5k. Do you call off?

I mean we get a really good prize, but how much is it worth saving the chips?

 

Hand 2: 

1k/2k I have 22 in SB with 14k. 

Button shoves 21k. Calling off?

We are crushed by all paired hands and we flips vs the rest. He will have 2 over alot of the time here. But is it really worth calling of here? 

I guess we would call of we A2 since we are “more” ahead of alot hands then 22 are?

I fold both and hope for a couple first-in spots where I'm the shover and get the chips back.

Fold both. You're 40-60% at best with no FE. Most money is made in poker tournaments with FE which you still have plenty of if you fold.

 

Not that it's the best play, but the cool thing is you will probably be better off folding the 22 and shoving 32o from the BTN in the next hand thanks to FE. FE is your FriEnd.
