Sometimes you can take advantage of it both now and later, but every push SB makes is going to open BB's calling range, unless BB is some sort of robot.

With a good player in the BB, i dont think SB should be on anything else but ATC. There s no way a competent BB would significantly loosen his calling range in this setup, even if SB is clearly pushing ATC, right?

If SB folds anything here, he gives up solid value this hand, for a very questionable reward. I'd be very surprised if this setup frequently lasts 2 more lvl's...but then, i'm not playing anywhere near this buy-in [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Btw, ICM overestimates BBs current equity. It does not take into account the future -EV spots that we will face as midstack on the bubble. Doubling up here does have more value than ICM suggests.
