Full Tilt, $4.62 Buy-in (200/400 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 4 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: 860 (2.2 bb)
BB: 1,505 (3.8 bb)
CO: 10,265 (25.7 bb)
Hero (BTN): 870 (2.2 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A♦: 3♠:
CO folds, Hero raises to 870 and is all-in, 2 folds

Results:

Spoiler

1,000 pot
Hero mucked A♦: 3♠: and won 1,000 (600 net)

ICM suggest to push A7o+ at this point but I think it is a crucial point to take these blinds, plus I have lots of fold equity with thbigstack out of the pot.

Based that the blinds are this high I expect you don’t have much fold equity against the BB. He needs to call only 470 more with 400 already invested, but it’s still likely he will call to tight here. So I wouldn’t mind to shove a little bit wider here. I think A3o is still too loose and there is also a decent change the SB will push against the BB as well. I would most likely push with A5o or higher if the BB is tighter than he should be.
