DYM Bubble question

Scenario:
4 players left with 2 short stacks with exactly the same chips.
They both go all in and one of the large stacks decides to call and knocks them both out.

Who comes 3rd and cashes?

    I think its the one with the biggest stack beforehand....

    Would it create another dynamic if the remaining 2 tripled their money?

    Yeah the guy who bubbles is the guy who went all-in with the lowest chips. That's why if someone has 1.5k shoves, a 4k stack calls, it's best to completely stay out of it if you have less than 1.5k, even if you a REAL premium hand, because you will basically HAVE to beat both of them to survive.

    The priority works like this:

    1) Highest chip stack pre
    2) Highest hand ranking (of the two)

    If 1 & 2 are equal (which we are never aware of happening before) a random 'winner' is picked. As you'll understand, this is very unlikely.

    Thanks

    Thanks very much for your reply.
    I know its very unlikely but was just thinking about it last night.
    (the big stack would be stupid to call !) lol
    Cheers
