I bet out 3K hoping to take it down preflop. If someone comes over-the-top, you still have options. Against tight big stacks, you can fold and still have enough to get through the blinds and limp into the money. Of course you can also decide to gamble...

I know most people cringe at the thought of putting in 1/3 stack and then having to fold, but folding would be read dependent, and you do have a legit shot at taking it down...

There was a guy at my table that tried to raise three times when we were 1 or 2 from the bubble. He was re-raised off his hand everytime. I wanted to jump up and tell him to quit putting money into a pot that he will not defend. The poor kid got run over because he didn't want to go broke on the bubble. He would have been better served never even looking at his cards but instead just tossing them in the muck until we made the money.
