How to read this spot
An opponent has shoved and you are on the big blind with 20 BB effective. These are the hands that are profitable to call with in chip EV.
You call tighter than you shove: shoving wins the pot uncontested when everyone folds, calling never does. Near the bubble, call even tighter (ICM).
