($33): Tough bubble decision with a shorty?

xJMPx · #1 11-09-2005, 03:29 PM

Maybe this isn't a tough decision, but I thought it was. Especially given my read that the BB will call with any Kx.

Seat 5 is the button

CO folds.
Button folds.
Hero ????

If BB is that loose, and with shorty being committed in the BB next hand, I think I fold this. Without shorty getting hit (or being so short) though, it's an easy push.

Given your read that he calls with any A, any K, any PP, I think this is a push. If shortie doubles once, you're not a lock for third. If you double here, you stand a fair shot at first.

I like to push this. It's too risky sitting around with the BB at 300, and A9 rocks!

Anyone else?

I think I push this. If the shortstack wins his all-in you're not in good shape. But it's tricky and I fold it if the bb has been loose.

Christ, you show a complete lack of understanding of ICM at all times. What the heck is your advice about? Seriously.
