Default Re: Even stacks on bubble

Against a good player I would push with any 2 here. Against a 10+1 player I think K2 is pretty much the cutoff.

Nottom, I have to disagree with the K2 being the cutoff part of your statement. Isn't this just a pure case of using the SK hand rankings? Especially since the stacksizes are essentially equal, SK applies completely here. (No waiting for a mini-stack to bust considerations.) Or am I missing something?

If Villain calls an 00ber-wide range, you can't push a range. Remember, getting into a coinflip on the bubble sucks, so we tighten up our calling range. +Chip EV moves aren't +$EV.

If opponent calls a huge range, this factor also comes in. Because confrontations leaving you with little to nothing suck on the bubble, and getting called means you get into a confronation, you will need to fold some +Chip EV hands if your opponent calls with horrible hands.
