i also think most people in this thread are overvaluing knocking out 3rd and undervaluing picking up 600 chips

There is so little value in the 600 chips here that winning the hand there shouldn't be a goal. Limping 200 to see a flop or see SB shove his remaining 400 in is worth the 10% or your stack.

If BB shoves, so be it. You don't have to call, and shorty is already AI (or should be).

Getting H/U on this hand is your goal, not winning chips.

using sngwiz, and with SB calling 100% i cant get this to be worse than a +.75% edge no matter what BB calls with. with SB on 74% and BB call1% at 28% i cant get it worse than +.82% no matter what call2% is.

so yea its a matter of if limping is better than pushing. but i dont think you can pass up an edge of almost 1%, especially since this isnt sngpt and overcalls are already factored in. unless im using sngwiz wrong it looks like a push
