Giving JTs 35% equity against SB's range calling will be -2.6% with ICM. Calling+winning is 34.11 so you'd have to bully the bubble enough to get your equity to 34.11 + 2.6/0.35 = 41.54 when you win. Obv thinking about it like that makes no sense cos you have to find what the "implied" values of folding and losing are too. Maybe 41.5 is actually close to the value you need for calling+winning with 35% equity. If you'd win an equal amount of chips from every player you'd have to win 3000 chips on the bubble. That's a lot considering that you have to do it every time. But only thinking about the future $EV until the end of bubble is also kinda stupid. But I'm pretty sure you can't bully the bubble enough to cover the -2.6% ICM suggests calling is.

Er what did I miss Slim? Admittedly, I haven't checked the math, but Finnisher is surely good enough not to screw it up?
