It in new very popular format of satelites, where you need to gain exact amount of the chips to get ticket. In this example starting stack 10k, to gain ticket worth of 2k you need to gain 100k. If you get more, 100k is taken from table, you get your ticket and rest of your chips are distributed to rest of the players, who werent elminated during last hand,

End of the tournament

3 players left
1 place- ticket, 2 place 70% of ticket, 3rd place nothing

BB ante type

blind 1/2k

Bu 99k chips, sb 51k, BB 20k

BU??? What should be all in range here? I don't have any clue how to estimate it? We need to steal blind one time to get ticket, if we dont do it, next hand we are on BB we pay ante and big blind, what makes ticket futher away from us.

Very interesting situation--- If we have an an all -in range it would be AA - if called and we lose to sb 51k wins the ticket or BB double up that is much more of a concern than having to post blinds based on this stack dynamic- you could easily get a walk in the blinds as the BTN now 51k has to play very tight and so does the SB 20k-
However the BB in this spot should gamble vs your shove because the upside to winning is greater than the upside to folding to protect the stack- You and the 51k should never be in a pot together because you can place second and win 70% of a ticket vs going broke and getting nothing so that forces the 20k stack to gamble to win anything and should if you shove.

You do not have to fold everything but raising and folding to the SB shove is better than shoving and being coolered by them
SB should shove vs you not call
