jmbreslin 0 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 150/300 Blinds (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comHero (UTG) (t2510)MP (t3685)CO (t2020)Button (t335)SB (t715)BB (t4235)Hero's M: 5.58Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, KHero ???Obviously shove or fold. We're on the bubble here, so 6th gets nothing, while 5th stays in the system with at least a Step 2 ticket. Blinds are high and climbing but notice the two shorties at the table.

dead money 1 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 150/300 Blinds (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comHero (UTG) (t2510)MP (t3685)CO (t2020)Button (t335)SB (t715)BB (t4235)Hero's M: 5.58Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, KHero ???Obviously shove or fold.

The real bubble isnt until final 3 so Im apt to be more aggressive. BB has to wake up with a monster or be a horrible player that calls with hands like AQ, 99 or similar for you to get unlucky here. You make up for it in the blinds you pick up. Link to post Share on other sites
Biff Goods 0 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Yah I don't know if being on the bubble really affects the decision here. You increase your stack by like 20% picking up the blinds and you have a quality hand for showdown. poooooosh Link to post Share on other sites

SwolyswoND 1 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 You don't have enough of a stack to wait this out, plus as others have said this isn't the real bubble. Gotta shove. Link to post Share on other sites
