Re: Isolating @ the bubble
ChrisV,
I actually want to post more but am busy with school work for the second. The thing is I think you seem to concerned with finishing ITM and that even if, god forbid, you make a big pot here once in a while you are still going to be a favorite and the chips you win put you in a position to get first more often.
For every time button calls with 99+ (which most are going to isolate with), he'll call with 55.
Also, why are you so concerned with eliminating the small stack? If he's around you'll be able to steal the guy to your left's BB liberally and apply pressure on the other big stack.
Every one of your arguments for calling seem to have counterarguments and in the end you are just passing on those 350 chips you alluded to over the long run.
