45 man on the bubble. Is this an elementary fold or is there any argument for re-shoving given our 7-8 big blind stack...

ISO reshove looks fine to me given the stacks (without running the maths).

Reads on how 2 big stack villains have played would be key too

Not played any of these for a while but I'm thinking it's maybe a fold? He's gonna get a call behind, and there's someone sat on a 719 stack too who needs to double up.

I'm gonna get in quick and say insta shove before Longy comes along with the correct answer.

I assume you shove if it folds to you and the opener's range is miles behind you so I can't see how fold can be correct.

It's a bit different when he doesn't shove because there's now 0 chance of him going out this hand.

How'd you work that out?

i agree with this, also our reshoves "tightens" up our range too and are so much less likley to get called too light (also assisited by the super shorty behind us). However  if i knew that the huge stack would def call lighter then I fold this spot

 shove for sure I think.  it has the bnefit of probably being both a shove for value (from the opener and 719 stack) and might even get better to fold from the later stacks.

How can there be 0 chance of going out?

There's 0 chance of the original shover going out if he does not shove. Thus the scenario you posted of us shoving if folded to us is different. Whether it makes much of a difference to whether we should be folding or shoving i'm not sure.

I think we're supposed to fold this hand because of ICM, however I'm having trouble in saying a shove is wrong mainly cos this seems a reasonable spot to have a shot at having a stack to play with.

I fold,

I happy to iso this from later position but with 4 people to act behind I am folding. The sick thing in these spots is that our hand isn't normally in that good shape when we get to showdown against the original raisor, people push too tight in these spots especially given there is another shortie. Oh yeah and ICMaments.

I would fold here too.

Not a special hand and pretty sure the BB is gonna call the shortie shove.

Would rather not have a iso shove with A9 for future credibility.  Get the shortie out and then play from there.  If we re shove and lose we are then in danger of bubbling ourselves.
