This is a pretty tough spot. Big stack was real loose and not real good. He might be on ATC here, or he might be on top 50-60%. I'm sure he's raising with all his Ax and Kx hands. The other guys are okay and seem to know what's up. What do you do here?

Blinds are 100/200

I take the HH out of Holdem Manager. I don't know why it doesn't list the blinds.

I had a similar situation recently. You most likely have slim to none fold equity. Given the stack sizes I think you have to fold.

I think I would trust ICM on this one and fold, because the two others are shorter than you and should be forced to make a move soon. It would be closer if the two other stacks were ~1500 (especially if they are good players), or if you had TT.

I think your looking at a flip here at best. You have 0 f/e. I would fold and wait for a better spot. The stack sizes of the other 2 mean they may crack before you do.
