I've finally gotten around to reading the book and have just reached the SNG Bubble portion. Since you only mentioned this problem of that section, does that mean the rest of the analysis is correct? It seemed really tight to me. I don't have the book in front of me. But he said to fold to a push unless you have AA and KK if you are tied with the big stack, with two short stacks. The reasoning is the huge difference between the 4th place prize and the third place prize.

I'm assuming this is correct since he probably used SNGPT to come up with that result. You can check it yourself if you have SNGPT. I found a couple of the results surprisingly tight, but not shockingly so. (The hand you describe was not one of them. I definitely knew it would be AA/KK there).
