Default ICM

I don't know how to figure out the best option for the following situation, using ICM, how would I do this?...

Stacks
Me:75000
Villian:40000
Other:65000

Payouts:
1st: 160
2nd: 100
3rd: 60
We're all in the money.

Villian is in the button, and let's assume the SB(other) is folding. I have KQ suited, and my estimation is that the Villian will shove 30% of hands (although I think this is an area I need work on, determine the percentage of hands villian will shove...let's just say, I think he is pretty loose with shoving here).

Is it profitable to call?

Blinds/antes please? If the blinds are at least 3000/6000 then it looks like this is a call for you, assuming you are correct about the villain's range. Lower blinds = fold. Smaller range = fold.

FWIW you might get a better answer in the STT forum.

I haven't played SNGs, but I can help you with the payout:

1st: 100
2nd: 40
3rd: 0

Those should be the payouts for your ICM calculations, since the $60 is already guaranteed to every player.
