It's a fold even if the SB is playing optimally & therefore shoving ATC. I always forget about that holdem resources site. Thx for the replies yall.

at best you are 60/40 here if he has something like 2 broadways, but more than likely given his stack and the fact that its the bubble, your either dominated w/ a better ace or he has a PP and your 40/60... very very standard fold

How to analyse this hand in full (against the player who isn't shoving any two):

Go here and put in the stack sizes and prizes, to calculate your equity if you fold (I'll assume this is a $55 with prizes of 247.50/148.50/99.00:

http://www.poker-tools-online.com/icm.html

You'll get:

Player Chips Prob 1st Prob 2nd Prob 3rd Equity
Hero
1630.000000 0.1207 0.2294 0.3205 $95.67
pretty
2335.000000 0.1730 0.3162 0.3088 $120.34
flaton78
8285.000000 0.6137 0.2752 0.0930 $201.98
matt1040
1250.000000 0.0926 0.1792 0.2777 $77.01


Figure out how much equity you'll have if you lose (obv $0).

Figure out how much equity you'll need if you win

Player Chips Prob 1st Prob 2nd Prob 3rd Equity
Hero
3630.000000 0.2695 0.4644 0.2337 $158.80
pretty
305.000000 0.0226 0.0468 0.1475 $27.17
flaton
8285.000000 0.6151 0.3041 0.0754 $204.85
matt1040
1250.000000 0.0928 0.1847 0.5434 $104.18


You risk $95.67 to win $63.13. 

Next, divide    Risk/(Risk+Possible Gain)

95.67/158.80 = 60.25%.

That's how often you must win to break even on your call.

Then go here:

http://www.propokertools.com/simulator/holdemOracle.jsp?compute=y&b=&h=put+in+his+range+here&e=60

and put in his shoving range.

It will tell you which hands win often enough to justify a call.

If he is shoving 100%, you can call with the hands that you figured out using the Nash ICM Calculator.

If pretty is not a player who understands he can abuse this situation, and is shoving a more typical 30%, you are going to need a much tighter {TT+, AQ+} here to make the call.

In general, if you are not in last place on the bubble, but you are covered, you need a ridiculously tight range to call a shove, and A3o will nearly never suffice.

Hope that helps!
