Re: Feeding chips to the short stack
If you're a HUGE HUGE HUGE stack (that probably will get ITM no matter what) and you can easily steal blinds by pushing all in against the middle stacks.
This works perfectly on the bubble.
For example:
SB You (7000 chips)
BB Shorty (300 chips)
UTG Villain1 (1300 chips)
B Villain2 (1400 chips)
If blinds are 150/300, I might fold the SB to the BB shorty (who is all in). This may mean I can easily push all in the next 2 hands, and the two villains will fold, not wanting to bubble out when shorty is about to bust. Therefore:
-Losing 150 to SB
-Winning 450 x 2 = 900 in stolen blinds.
If this happens for a while, you might end up with 3 shorties, with a huge huge % guarantee of 1st place.
