FT of a 2 day $27 SCOOP. 1st place is 60k, the next one out gets 3.5k and 7th is 6k .. so there are obv ICM consideration.

I've shoved twice already (one time BvB) since I have to remain fold equity. People are doing some weird raise/fold stuff with 10bb stacks. I have probably the worst seat at the table with the big stack to my left.

Villain is a midstakes regular and got his chiplead at the final 2 tables when he got it in with the other bigstack in a pretty marginal spot. So my read is that he doesn't care about ICM and takes any +cEV spot. Yet he has been pretty tight at the FT for the first 2 orbits.

Midway through a tournament I shove here all day long .. but does ICM change my shove decision since laddering up 1 more spot almost doubles the payout?

    wat ATC? vs him def not ATC.
    ATC is good if he calls tight which is unlikely given his stack and history.

    50%ish or something, i'd fold J2s here.

    prob not quite this but a sooted face card is more than enough. His stack certainly isnt big enough to be making loose spite calls but I may still dump things like 73o 82o etc.
