    Default $16 three handed JJ

    Wasn't sure about this one. goon is something like 17 /3 so far throughout the tourney and pretty passive even three handed. rog is something like 55/? he plays a lot of hands. Can I lay this down?

    Depends on the ranges but if goon is really passive like you said then you can fold here I guess..

    I see no reason to gamble here.

    Unless either villian is extremly tight I call this

    What's the ICM on this?

    It is a very tricky hand for ICM (i.e. requires tons of calculations and FE assumptions) , I may give it a shot later

    I ran this in SNG Wiz, with the following assumptions:
    - Button raises with 12% (44+, A9o+, A7s+, KJs+) and calls a shove with 4% (TT+, AQ+)
    - SB shoves over with 10% (55+, ATo+, A8s+, KQs)
    - Button calls two shoves with 4% (TT+, AQ+) and one shove with 6% (88+, AQo+, ATs+)

    ...and calling was +1.0% EV, making it an easy call. Both players would have to be significantly tighter than this to make this a bad call.

    You have 2 different ranges of button calling a shove, which one did you use ?

    Sorry, I fixed it - Button calls one shove with 6% and two shoves with 4%.

    But, this is 3 handed?

    Needs better read than 17/3, but most people open up a lot OTB 3-handed, and SB sounds like a drooler. I cant find any reason to fold here.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    I don't think button calls two shoves with anything but QQ+. With that said I bet this is still a +ev call.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.
