88 in CO vs HJ open vs BB squeeze

Doing some training with snowie and vs a HJ open snowie uses the following range from the CO
call 54s-65s, 99-JJ, AQ,
3bet A5s-A2s, A10s-AKs, AKo, KQs-KJs, QQ-AA

However, in this spot I chose to flat call 88, which it said I need at least 99 to call and 88 is some times a bluff raise.
Question #1 why is a hand like 65s a call and a hand like 88 a fold?

The BB squeezed
HJ $11, Hero co $11, BB $46.5, HJ folds, now snowie is saying against the squeeze I should call with 54s-65s. 99-JJ, it doesn't show it, but says 55 is also a call.

I know snowie is trying to polarize it's range and avoid hands that are dominated vs callers range.

How good is snowie for live poker?

I have studied with Pio for quite a long time and when I did a small amount of play on Snowie it showed no errors so I would assume that the strategy it creates is pretty strong. I would bet it is a great tool for learning a good strategy quickly. As you move up or want to create exploits I would say move to a real equilibrium solver.

which pio software would you recommend to start off with? are any free? or do you have to pay for all of them? if you have to pay for all which one do you suggest?
