Default Re: Bubble Aggression Hand Party $30+3

I agree with the general concensus for this hand. While you spotted an opportunity to play the bully, you may want to consider that there are lower risk bullying tactics in this situation, IMO.

This looks like an excellent opportunity to keep the bubble alive and hopefully dwindle krab down in the process. He will have to post the BB next hand with the tiny stack UTG. Since you effectively have first action on both the next two hands (the tiny stack really doesn't change anything if he calls or not). I would raise all-in here every time. If UTG calls in front of you, then hopefully he beats your hand to quadruple up. On the next hand I would go all-in again. Your opponents will be very unlikely to call all-ins in the next two hands with the tiny stack around. I think open-raising virtually every opportunity while it is 4-handed has less risk IMO.
