Interesting that J5s is on the bubble heads up.

I guess I agree that in a 3 player game the Bubble would be the hand ranked in the top 70% like you say. I'm not suggesting you think this but for others reading here, that's not the same as the hand that wins 70% of the time against a random hand when taken to showdown.

Ok, PairTheBoard, since you are going martyr on me with your, "The best ideas always ridiculed by the man," stuff...

What exactly is this "bubble" that you are talking about? For instance, if J5s is on the bubble, surely J2s is below the bubble. What conclusions about HOW TO PLAY J2s do you draw from that?
