Today you’ll be playing at a major tournament final table with significant pay jumps. There are two shorter stacks on the table with 10 and 12BBs. You have 30BBs on the Button and call an open raise from the chip leader in the Cutoff seat who has 70BBs.
Due to the presence of the short stacks and significant pay jumps there is ICM (Independent Chip Model) pressure on your stack to avoid busting out before the short stacks. Your preflop calling range on the Button should be quite narrow even though the Cutoff’s opening range is quite wide.
