Default Keeping a favorable bubble alive

Hi All,

I was playing in a Party Poker $200 NLHE yesterday afternoon when I saw what I thought was a brilliantly executed play of keeping a favorable bubble alive.

The player keeping this bubble alive was profiting immensely and it was starting to put me in a very bad situation. I had to give up 2 rounds of blinds to all in bets while this was going on. I finally had to go all in with Ax to break it up several hands later. In other words, he had me right where he wanted me! [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (4 handed) converter

SB (t6515)
BB (t220)
Hero (t2570)
Button (t695)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
Hero folds, Button calls t300, SB completes.

Flop: (t820) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
SB checks, Button checks.

Turn: (t820) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
SB checks, Button checks.

River: (t820) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
<font color="CC3333">SB bets t400</font>, Button folds.

Final Pot: t1220
<font color="#990066">Main Pot: t820 (t820), won by SB.</font>
<font color="#990066">Pot 2: t400 (t400), between SB and BB.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by BB (t400).</font>

Results in white below: <font color="white">
SB shows 2s 8c (two pair, queens and nines).
BB shows Th Ad (two pair, queens and nines).
Outcome: SB wins t820. BB wins t400. </font>
