It's tournament with 15 minutes blinds. I was almost sure that if I fold every next hand i will be in cash. But with max 2 blinds...

Medium stack 40 bb. 170 payable place 175 left. I was 169 at this moment. But 160-170 has similar stack.


pokerstars, $50 + $5 - Hold'em No Limit - 1,000/2,000 (200 ante) - 8 players

Does it mean a lot to you to min cash? That's the question you need to ask but I think this is an auto shove.

Easy shove even on the bubble. You got called by a dominated hand and won. Whats not to like? :)

I;m sooo curious to know what ICM says about it :p But i can't find a calculator for more than 15 players. What is a difference between that play.

100 % -> 90$ and 2 bb for rest game

or 70% for 12 bb

ICMizer has an MTT function. Rather than putting in all the exact information about stack sizes and payouts, we can usually just make some approximations. I selected "MTT 1.500 man", where 198 places pay, 204 players left and an average stack size of 43.000 chips similar to your table. The jamming range for Hero is then 77+. AJ+, ATs, QJs+. So a relatively snug range, but AK is still a very profitable jam. So unless min-cashing was very important to you, clearly the right play was the one, you made :)
