Default Re: 27$ Bubble-\"have your cake and shove it in Villain\'s face too\"

You can work the other three players on the bubble to < 3 BB, often, in a game with antes?

If so, this is all the more reason why you should be pushing, here. If the games are that weak tight why would you ever let a medium stack see a flop?

Also, if you do happen to win against the small stack, there is honestly no need for a bubble press anymore. Your cEV is probably much higher when you raise to isolate the short stack than when you just call to induce play against a medium stack. Any good player in a higher buy-in game knows what's going on here when you don't push, and if they are calling they are calling to double up against your weak bubble play, and to 'steal' the bubble from you.

Stealing the bubble at the expense of going out 4th with a 350 stack left? Plus he still wouldnt have me covered so in essense, he couldnt exactly 'steal' the bubble anyway.

In a higher buy-in game they might not interpret a bigstack who limps as doing so with a monster, but here they might...(because I had been pushing relentlessly on the other two up until now.)
