hi,
here again the power of icm. I just switched the stacks. Take a look at both calcs.
HRC
HRC
and just for the completion
HRC
iPoker - 100/200 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3
BTN: 2,280 (11.4 bb)
SB: 2,605 (13 bb)
Hero (BB): 2,495 (12.5 bb)
CO: 1,620 (8.1 bb)
4 players post ante of 20, SB posts 100, Hero posts BB 200
Pre Flop: (pot: 380) Hero has A♣: J♣:
CO raises to 1,200, 2 folds, Hero folds
Results: 580 pot (0 rake)
CO wins 580
That's no surprise with in mind a DON is the most ICM heavy SNG format that there is.
There are enough examples you can better fold AA if you can fold with it in ITM.

I know but isnt thus interesting how a small change of involved stacksizes have extreme impacts? I think that most icm effects exists in other formats to but they are way less heavy as expected. I ask in the spots myself can it be really this bad but it looks like it hardly depends on the chip situation on the table. Its not even bad to call close to nothing in dons or its early or its shorty vs shorty.
