$55 bubble hand that makes my head hurt....
One villain is tight, other 2 are loose passive. I have not been stealing because they were calling almost every PF bet. I had KK last hand, but amazingly got no action. Anyway, SGA has this as "too close to call," but I am thinking I should push and pray.
My FE is evaporating, I am outchipped by 4x and the blinds are nearly on me. Ugh. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter UTG (t3950) Button (t3105) SB (t2145) Hero (t800) Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Hero kicks himself in the balls for letting himself get to the bubble with only t800....

Well, I think limping would require opponents that think at the second level (i.e. why did he limp? Oh Sh!t, he must have a premium hand... better check and fold even if I hit my pair of queens with crap kicker)....

[/ QUOTE ] I think this is the best stack arrangement for the push...you have the stack with most to lose in the BB and his calling range will be highest.

Re: $55 bubble hand that makes my head hurt....
You desperately need a double up. Just push and pray. You may get them all to fold. You may get called by one opponent and suck out on a better hand. You may get called by an opponent with something like QJ and actually be in the lead. Limping will just invite them all to call and bust you.
