Before any answer (mine at 11bb is super confident fold without even caring about sb having 32o sometimes lol and without any calc done) we need to know these things;
1) What was the avg stack at the time roughly.
2) How many people started (ie what is the total prizes) and buy in (1600 and how many).
3) Some rough idea about pay structure. Is min cash 3k or what? I didnt see anything for sure in the thread.
4) Are the others left same skill more or less or are we assuming we are better than their avg skill?
5) Did we pay for the event or did we enter with a satellite etc. Is bankroll deep enough to not care that much about the impact of cashing?
If you can answer some or all of them an answer can be calculated.
More likely the solution will be something like SB pushes real wide, even >80%, often just 100% is not even a tiny mistake for him, and hero needs to call real tight like 15% or such, without even remotely being surprised if it comes as tight as 6% or less lol with just 1 guy left to go and our stack enough to survive multiple orbits, during which landing an AA-JJ,AKs just for the hell of it (or a 10% hand with others having folded and the blinds left etc) and pushing to double and recover everything is going to happen with over 50% chance before we lose everything. Its so dramatically small chance to not cash in if we took such defensive line. Is likely a near >95% certainty by looking only for top 5 hands or pushing only if 50% of others have folded with tight 10%, obviously a far from optimal approach.
See this funny kind of effective pay result to see why i am so naturally tight so often that people are shocked. Great players can afford to wait as long as it bloody takes to get it right.
