Bubble Play Principles
I'm trying to write down the bubble play Principles I've seen in the threads around here. Please comment/add. Avoid formulamatic/mechanical rules when possible.
(1) Trying - as best as the cards allow - to make your stand as the bettor and not the caller will reduce your heads up "coin tosses" IMHO - Chill888
(2) You don't want to be playing a big pot against the chip leader here. On the bubble, smooth calls particularly in an unraised pot are an awful idea. That means you need to either raise or fold preflop.--BigJohn043
(3) Raise 3x BB unless that's more than 1/3 of your stack, in which case push.
