This is from a $109 on 888, about 140 starters and we are down to last 4. Top 18 were paid, 4th gets $1k and 1st gets $3k.

DoyleB102 has been fairly active throughout FT, opening and 3betting. Table has been pretty standard since the blinds went up, been a few shoves and not many calls. Thought this spot was awkward because of ICM.

Is this an open shove? Could I minraise and fold to sb shove and call bb shove? Is this ever a fold?

Jammin or folding.love your icm consideration..when im this close to winning a tourney, to me icm is the most important thing. Definitely not minfolding..im really wanting to wait at this point for that 8bb stack to get blinded down. i think in this spot  you can be patient..18bigs in this shallow of tourney is like a 100. just like a turbo sitngo at this point only paying 3 spots, im not bubbling unless that shorty doubles, im very tight..unless i have a pretty solid starting hand im folding letting this guy bust or double first, hes running out of time, he has to make a move. gl

I don't like raising and folding to SB's 3bet because he was active so he can be light here easily and I think K9o isn't good enough hand to shove here (or at least it's not necessary), so I would just fold. If blinds were tigher I would minraise and call BB.

I'd fold this pre

 

18 bb's is too much and K9o is right at the bottom of our range even if both stacks had us covered

 

We do have to take into account the fact that we'll more than likely have to call off with an appropriate range when we are in the BB and the shorties are jamming into us obv

I also like folding here. We are 4 handed with 18bbs but if you look and stack sizes, you are in good shape. BB is desparate and will be looking to get it in and SB could 3bet jam an open. On to the next hand.

i'd say my decision if id play this hand here would be much dependant on the table dynamic and how i have played so far on the ft.

the easiest way is to fold

but tbh if i havent shoved a lot, i'd consider a shove here. (but this could also be a mistake)
