hi,

I have a question that refers to the different payout structures in sngs. Std for this hand is a shove pre. but if you look closely nash recommends a shove for 70/30 (ICM 70/30) which I understand. I am curious about the other because in 65/35 (ICM 65/35)this is a fold but in a 60/40 (ICM 60/40) is an even better shove then the 70/30 structure, Can you please explain why is that? I thought the less topheavy the structure the more icm we have on the bubble. The links show the same hand but with different structures. I am aware that the std party structure is a 60/40.

The only reason I can think of is that the BB should call tighter in a 60/40 paid out structure. If he doesn't do that the shove will be more -ev for you.
