Default Pocket Ducks on the Bubble: $109 Stars Turbo

What's my best play? Blinds are 200/400/50 and I have the
big blind.

Seat 1 5500 very loose
Seat 2 800 hanging on and trying to bubble
Seat 3 4500 seemingly solid
Seat 4 2500 hero

Seat 1 open raises to T1200. All fold to me with pocket ducks. Openers range is extremely wide. Seat 2 shows no
willingness to play a hand. Do I risk busting in fourth
or do I try to double when I'm probably on the good side
of a flip?

Bruce

I fold. I might push with 8s though. How has villan reacted to resistance so far? I really don't like getting into a coin flip here without FE.

You have no fold equity. Running a coinflip here is a disaster with a shorty with 2 BB's remaining on the bubble.

This pretty much sums up my thoughts.
