    playing in a $5k guaranteed turbo on bodog recently.. down to 3 players blinds 12,500/25,000 i have 41,750 behind in the SB.. button has been disconnected since we were 5 handed and has won 3 of his surviving all ins in a row to not go out.. he has 8,000 chips on the button... bb has 355k behind.. i get dealt QsJs and button obv snap folds bc he is still disco... 1st place is $1,850, 2nd is $1,150, 3rd is $750.. should I shove and try to double since I have an awesome hand for my stack size.. or should I walk the massive cl and hope to wrap up at least 2nd place by folding and waiting for the player disconnected to bust?? what should I do??

    will post results once I get some responses

    I fold it. You probably will not get 1st anyway. $400 jump in real money. That is real money. The other guy is in BB next hand with 8000. He will be in against other guy. You could push your button and then at least you have a 2 in 1 shot of beating the guy. You definitely have to call with whatever in the BB if the disconnect wins the next two hands.

    easy icm fold i believe. I've never messed around with icm but from playing a ton of sngs I would snap fold. think of it as payouts are 1100-400-0 and these are the stack sizes.
