so there's actually 271 left and 270 pay? I guess it's a fold.

If you want to get ITM - fold.

If you want to win - shove it.

PS Of course the chance to win is slim.

Any idea how many if any of these 5 are hitting the BB before you? I know you don't play like this echo, but strictly for arguements sake will take a shot:
I will assume that if you win at any given point you will blind off untill bubble. There are a lot of possibilities, I am making simplifying assumptions to ease calc, I think most of the extreme scenarios cancel each other out.

ALL IN:

Assume 50% chance someone isolates with a top 25% hand.
If no one isolates you will likely you will get >=2 callers.
equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 48.082% 46.98% 01.10% 28311261 663614.33 { AKo }
Hand 1: 26.046% 25.11% 00.94% 15129642 566292.67 { random }
Hand 2: 25.872% 24.87% 01.00% 14987070 603864.67 { random }

=48.08%* ((2700 antes+(2348*3)=9744)=4685 cev
=48.08%*472$= 226.93$ ev

If someone isolates you, can assume 99+ AQ+

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 48.652% 39.52% 09.13% 414180516 95654640.00 { AKo }
Hand 1: 51.348% 42.22% 09.13% 442440252 95654640.00 { 99+, AQs+, AQo+ }

=48.65*((2700 antes+2348*2+1500)=8896)=4328 cev
=48.65%*472= 229.62 $ ev


Total
(4685+4328)/2= 4506 cev
(229.62+226.93)/2= 228.27$ ev


FOLD:

If you fold and don't play until the big blind AND are still on the bubble, you will have a random hand vs more likely one opponent with top 25% of hands (blinds have not changed):

Assume 85% someone isolates:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 62.407% 61.25% 01.16% 436794072644 8273447008.00 { 55+, A2s+, K6s+, Q8s+, J8s+, T8s+, A7o+, K9o+, QTo+, JTo }
Hand 1: 37.593% 36.43% 01.16% 259833649340 8273447008.00 { random }

=37.59%*(2700 antes+(1438(effective)*3)=7014)=2636.56 cev
=37.59%*472 =177.42$ ev


15% no one isolates
If no one plays SB will have called since all in is less than SB:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 50.000% 47.97% 02.03% 1334125369292 56565131908.00 { random }
Hand 1: 50.000% 47.97% 02.03% 1334125369292 56565131908.00 { random }

=50%* (2700 antes+(1438*2)=5576)=2788 cev
=50%*472= 236$ ev

Total
(85%*2636.56+ 15%*2788)=2659.27 cev
(85%*177.42+15%*236) = 186.2 $ ev



So looks like shove is correct, Shove is bad if the pot becomes 4 way, then % win is closer to 35% and ev becomes around 165$. I excluded that as I think it might cancel out with SB folding and other weird things like half your table getting disconnected etc. Also, if answer to first question is that two poeople likely to go out, before your BB then the whole calc needs to be changed.

P.S. Please point out and ridicule if any of this math is wrong. Also I have made a lot of assumptions here pelase point out if unreasonable.

Common sense dictates that if you want to maximize your ROI, this has to be a fold.

The post above must have some baaaad math (Edit: or more likely bad assumptions), not that I'm going to bother reading through it all.

ryan I hope you're joking, but to assume someone else's hard work is just wrong without reading it or anything, is just so demeaning and belittling to his work... I'd expect better from you.

ps (this is mastr)

yeah the math in that post makes no sense. As far as I can tell he's pulled the $EV values out of thin air, ignoring all bubble considerations on top of that (the entire point is that 2 people are likely to bust before his BB). Like I said on AIM pretty sure this is an easy fold.
