The big stack has been pretty aggressive trying to take pots down. The other dude has not done much other than shove over a few of my raises. I have been opening the most amount of hands out of all of them. The BB has shoved over my raises probably 3 or 4 times. I opened the button small to try to get one of them to shove but is this what I really want in a satellite? 2 get seats 3rd get nothing. I would think this would have to be close. What ranges are you guys calling? Im guessing I should be opening pretty bad hands and good hands and should be shoving hands like qj suited.

Hero (BTN): t3158 M = 8.42
SB: t3598 M = 9.59
BB: t8244 M = 21.98

Pre Flop: (t375) Hero is BTN with Q A
Hero raises to t444, 1 fold, BB raises to t8219 all in, Hero calls t2689 all in

Fine?

i'm definitely shoving a good amount of hands if i'm BB since you should be raising a good amount of buttons...looks super std to me

shove > r/f
if you are unsure about whether you can r/c here given ICM voodoo (ie he shoves relatively tight) just shove preflop.

we have not been at your table, so only you know whether r/c > shove or vise versa.

well raise/call is going to get me in a lot of good spots to double up. like if this wasnt a satellite i think raise/call is a lot better than shoving. but considering it is a satellite, is picking up the pot pre by shoving a better play because I am not playing to win?

Not sure about the math on this but it feels like shoving is the right play here
