Default $60: KQs BB, good enough?

Villain is a good regular. Pushes a little light but I'm not sure about his steal range.

against a small range it should be a fold here considering ICM
and the blinds are not so high you will be on the button soon and find a better spot to gather some chips

close, but i fold.

it depends a bit on the regular, but if he is a tight one (not raising a ton here), i would give him 77 A9s KJs ATo KQo. you have 40.3% equity vs his range. you need 41.2% for neutral chips ev, a little more neutral $EV.

so it sorta depends. if you think he is raising wider go for it, otherwise fold is best.

you are 43.9% vs 66+,A8s+,KTs+,A9o+,KJo+.

the thing is, he can see you are short and sb does not have a ton of chips either, and he is not too worried about.

I usually fold here but I saw his stack vs the blinds and thought he might be taking advantage. With antes I guess it's a call?

i think it is a very easy call with antes. all of the overlay plus people increase their opening range with antes.
