Recently I've been practising with ICM Trainer and this spot bothers me a lot. Do we really have to call so tight here?
Thanks.

It gonna depends on BTN range. But, on that spot, villian should push a wide range, like 30%+, so 77 should be a easy call. You're ITM, and you're the shortest so your risk premium is minimum. Hope I'm correct

These situations are pointless because very rarely is BU going to push 31big blind effective stack. If he does do this you should already know whether he is a hugely drooler (wide range, thus we call) or just is afraid with TT or 99 or AK of being sucked out on (fold!)
There's a setting somewhere on ICM Trainer that lets you make it so that you only get questions for 10bb (or lower) pushes, I'd suggest doing that because otherwise we get a bad indication of what the right play is.
Thank you for the clarification. ![]()
However, I checked it out and I am pretty sure that there isn't such a setting in ICM Trainer. I guess it is only useful for practising to push yourself and not calling, because villains almost always shove 10bb+.
but you shouldn't shove with 31bb either ^^, just skip those questions if there's no setting
