Default Re: Step 5 bubble hand.

These are my thoughts.

Big blinds is:
Seat 9: BlindBOMB ( $5080 )

You pushing is a guaranteed 2:1. So if he is a sound player, he is likely to call. If he is a donkey, I think he's likely to call as well.

Next, given that bigstack is a tight SB on the next hand (or perhaps reasonable is the correct terminology), he could/might provide some coverage from the other players. Furthermore, your stack is so desperate, that you likely won't see a steal attempt without a real hand. If things play out according to plan, the next hand will be folded to SB who just completes (maybe even folds). You decide how to play from here.

This is how I would have rationalized your hand.
