Default Re: Bubble play w/ 7 players left?

It#s more a psycholgical problem, I think.

You are used to other conditions. The usual mix of super tighties and donks. You concentrate on the donks to get them in a big pot when you have a hand and you concentrate on the tighties to steal their blinds.

If every table was like that you would win money easily. Well, it isn't. Sometimes you end up at a table with 7,8 players left and all seem as competent as you are. Probably, they are. Now, you can no longer count on finishing ITM as you are used to. This makes you feel out of place and uncomfortable. You just have to accept these conditions and you have to accept that you are as likely to finish 1st as anybody else and that it will mainly depend on your cards. I bet the others feel as uncomfortable as you. Accepting this gives you at least a psycholgical edge.
