WTF, standard. You have only enough money for two more orbits.

CO's range here is pretty wide, he has all three covered, and BB won't risk his entire stack without a super premium hand, since there are two shorties fighting to get into the money.

It is a fairly easy call, OP, why do you think his range is tighter than that?

The reason SnGPT says it's -EV is because there is a shorter stack. But, it's not really taking into account how close you are to that short stack, and what happens if the short stack gets a walk, or doubles up.

I think this is a good spot to take a slight -EV spot. Not to mention, CO could be extremely wide there if he's good.

I call here all day. how can you fold when you only have enough money for two more rounds? I'm sure AQo here beats co's range drastically. So, call like a man.

The CO should be on ATC, and definitely much looser than OP's estimates. This is a pretty easy call if we can assume the CO is at least halfway decent.

ICM tools will show this as push when you put in a reasonable CO-range.
