Default Re: A4 fold from SB against BB

BB was not overly aggresive or loose

Push. With two short stacks left of 5, you're usually not going to get into the money by just folding it down and hoping they get knocked out (and when you do fold into the money, you'll usually be very short stacked). A good (well-timed) offense is often the best defense in bubble/near-bubble situations like this.

Sucks the few times BB will pick up a hand, call and win, but it also sucks when you pass up good steal opportunities like this and that (folding til you get short stacked and have to make a desparate move with some crap that easily gets picked off) is what ends up costing you getting into the money.
