    So.. I pasted to ICMIZER, put V 21% OR from EP (that's the number I have in 300 hands, and he was playing very loose) And ICMIZER says: QQ+

    Is this because of the 2 short stacks? It would be a push without them?

    In a spot like this where now I know I can't push, can I call?? 3bet I don't think so, two big stacks at the blinds which were playing losts of hands

    Think I'm saying **** ICMIZER on this one and getting it in the middle regardless of the two shorter stacks. Maybe this is why I'm never improving hehe XD

    Are you sure about your ICMizer results? QQ looks like a range for calling a push rather than shoving over an open - seems a very clear jam - shortstacks or not

    I don't know if I am using ICMIZER right. I pasted the hand, choose "ICM" choose "pokerstars MTT 1500 man", changed the V range from 8% to 21% and press calculate. It says now JJ+ because in 1st try blinds were 20/40 then a friend told me to change it.

    I don't use ICMizer - but I think that the problem is with the calling ranges - It seems to be putting calling ranges for SB BB and MP2 at 8% which includes hands like 88 and KTs - which they will never call with - try it at 4-5 % (maybe 6% for MP2) and see what that looks like - also the antes are wrong - which will make a small difference.

    Can't really feel that bad losing with AK here, calling pre flop isn't a bad option too if you don't feel like flipping, but most players would say go with it.

    id probably 3b/c with the big stacks behind, esp if they have any clue and could 4b a bit lighter than normal

    But ICM means we want to avoid gii against bigger stack. Even with 60 % equity in terms of chip EV it's neutral or -ve $EV I would say. Better to shove to maximise fold equity imo.

    you're already covered; being covered twice doesnt matter

    But the point is we're not strong enough to want to induce here from either stack.
