    I thought I read where ICM starts breaking down with more than 5 players. In this situation, I think I shove and hope for the best.

    option 1 just doesnt cut it so its either shove or fold.

    id lean towards pushing as theres ~30% of ur stack just sitting in the middle and ur gonna be the aggressor here with a pretty decent hand and a stack thats gonna hurt everyone except the 15k stack but he needs a genuine monster to call u.

    Easy shove with that stack. You'll still get called by worse like KQ and can flip with most pairs, plus you've got some fold equity and picking up the blinds and antes is a welcome result too.

    id imagine this is another 45man which should mean we're on the bubble.
