($33) Taking advantage of big stack on bubble, is this right?
I two table the $33s and only play about 10 hrs a week, so unfortunately I don't get into the situation were I'm a significant cheap leader on the bubble with a short stack all that often.
So, I'm very inexperienced with it and being ultra aggressive in this situation has not been working all that great, as people at the $33s seem to have loose calling standards even with a very small stack. This is an example, am I on the right track or do you still need some kind of a hand here?

Looks fine. As a continuation on the calling standards discussion earlier. What should people call with as SB or BB in this situations?

Re: ($33) Taking advantage of big stack on bubble, is this right?
Here's some reasoning as to why you play is good.
If button folds, SB and BB would be pretty foolish to call without the top 5-10% of hands considering how short button is. And if button calls, you're risking less than 2BB and a very small portion of your stack to get a chance into the money. Nice hand.

Your opponents should fold a lot of hands.
But this is a 33. Play your reads.

Hero has 5d 8c Button has Ah 4c SB has As Qd [/ QUOTE ] This is why I don't like making this move, though I know it's the right thing. Why the heck are these people calling in these spots? Maybe Button, who's M is near dead-zone levels with A high, but why the hell is AQ calling here? Does he have a read on you that you're LAGgish here? Or has the game changed so much that you have to make these calls on the bubble and risk your chips here?
