Re: battle of blinds on bubble
3rd place money is pointless, bubble lack of money is pointless. Play to win, there are two folds behind you, your hand is VERY strong in this spot, I push everytime. Do you think you'll catch as strong a hand in the next three to four hands when the blind hits you again?
this isn't the time to play tight. If you run into a stronger hand, it happens, what can ya do?
Heads-up I pushed with 4/4 and ran into A/3 and he caught an Ace. Very next hand I had J/J and pushed against A/Q suited and he hit a Queen and I was out in 2nd. Even as a slight favorite I lost two hands in a row and went away (after securing the chip lead with A/K vs. K/7).
You can't be afraid to push with these hands, or you'll be bubbling a lot.
