Alright when this happened I had just gotten a phone call and lost awareness of the other two short stacks. My reasoning for calling was that the maniac was just about pushing every hand he was first to enter into and had already shown Q3.

Also blinds were about to go up to 600/1200 which basically put me at 2XBB plus getting hit with the 600 SB. I really am not sure what to do in this spot. If my hand wins I have a much better shot 1st but if I fold blinds could take out one of the two other shorts. I'll stop babbling now and let you guys rip me a new one.

FOLD, If he had Q3 that would be a disaster

IMO you really need to learn/re-learn ICM if you even are thinking of calling here.

I need to learn it. Where can I?
