99 on button on bubble

Certainly, the all in play has some merit and it's far superior to a smaller raise or a call, but for me, 99 is right on the borderline for this play. I muck 99 and jam with TT here.

I agree. I thought about this exact point a lot while I was contemplating what to do. I know people tend to over value mid pp. i.e. people pushing with 33-77 without hesitating.

Often with a hand like 55, I'll ask myself would I push here with 67s? Most likely not. So I thought about laying this down the same way. On the contrary I did not want to play weak/tight poker on the bubble.

I'm still not sure what the correct answer is, but I'd be interested to hear what some of the other players have to say.
