quite possibly is i was always told if getting 2-1 in big blind you are getting the odds to make the call with any 2
with this guys stack he was shoving very light his range is quite possibly any 2 infact when cards were turned over i was ahead

let me expand on that

in this hand i am only worse than 2-1 against hands that contain a Jack and over pairs
even against TT-77 i am only a 2-1 dog
and a huge part of his range i am 35-45%
adding into this hands that even a tight player would be shoving with here 67s+
and then the out an out shove and hope

i dont have an icm calc but i am sure that in hands like this it must be +ev in cards terms to make the call but does that count in tourny equity aswell?
