Bubble hand from Stars 36+3 Sat
There is one 140 stack that will be all in with antes in 3 hands, and one 600 stack that will be all in before me. Do I take the gamble and call, or do I hope one of the two other shorties or some idiot mid stack busts before?

23 people left, 22 seats. 23rd gets about $50.

Boy. Even if it's folded to you I think I muck this. You're going to get at least one and probably two spite calls here. Yeah, you're ahead, but not by much against two random hands.
Part of it would also depend on whether the other table is colluding to keep shorties alive, or if your table will do so for your benefit. (I think we've all seen tall stacks folding their blinds to shorty's push, just to be nice.) Yuck.

Re: Bubble hand from Stars 36+3 Sat
The other table with the shorties seems very happy to bust shorties. Big stacks call the BB every hand to check it down. No colluding.
More info. Folded to me, SB has 1000 after posting so if I call it might be HU against BB.

Re: Bubble hand from Stars 36+3 Sat
you're 65/35 vs a random hand.
two guysy will have to be all in before your are forced.. you're better than 65% to win without having to play another hand. And if by chancee they make it around, you can always win your all-in.

Push...er...call. If one shorty gets lucky, and the other actually hits a hand, you are next one out.

Woops disregard this. For some reason I remember SB being very short, was wrong. So SB will obviously call and it will be a 3 way pot.

Re: Bubble hand from Stars 36+3 Sat
You did the hard work, you survived the blinds. You now have 5 hands that you can wait. If there are at least 2 shorties on the other tables that people seem to be willing to bust out, you're more likely to win by waiting than win by calling all in. You indicated that this is the case. Fold.
