88 on bubble vs. minraiser
Button has donked away a couple thousand chips both pushing and calling with weak hands. My only choice here is to push, right? Can I pull a stop-n-go?
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter UTG (t5280) Button (t1310) Hero (t850) BB (t560) Preflop: Hero is SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t300</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero??? |

Sounds like an easy push with your read.

Do we have any reason to think that he min-raises KK, QQ, etc.? I've seen some less-than-polished players min-raise their best stuff, hoping to get action that way. Absent specific knowledge or hunches then, sure, try to double up with the best hand. |

I'm thinking about BB's chip count at least as much as I'm thinking about Button's cards.

Same here, but the action is messed up, because there's already been a fold after the Button's raise, and that's the position Hero is in [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
