utgs range is super wide since he's about to hit the blinds but with 2 stacks behind and BB covering you probably should pass without at least like TT+ AQs+, just my guess.

I was initially thinking 99+, AJs+, AQ0+. We need 45% equity and we have that even against a really tight shove range and if it weren't FT bubble I think we could call wider than that but maybe w/ ICM issues here that would effect our calling range.

My general ICM skills suck so I'd be really curious to see if someone could break it down. Guess we would need payout structure for that?

with ICM we need close to 60% against his range so TT, AQ+ sounds about right

I'd call 88+ AQ+, not sure if it's right though.

I'm probably calling 88+, AT+. Depends somewhat on how the table is playing though. If people are being active and stuff I'm more inclined to wait and try to reach the final table.

calling with AT here is lighting money on fire.

99+ AQ+. AJs and 88 are close.
