I'm pretty much open pushing any 2 here (obviously not, but you get the idea). Great stack dynamics you have here.

Yes, I treat this very much like the bubble.

Yeah given the stack sizes you have to start treating this like the bubble and begin pushing around the smaller stacks and forcing them into bad calls. Or -EV calls.

Agree with the others. I find myself in similar situations frequently. In my mind this is bubble time...

All the time. Once the blinds go up over 50/100, it's bubble time, regardless of how many players are left. I've seen 8 at 200/300. I've seen 4 at the end of that round. Once the blinds get up to a point they have great value in and of themselves, it's bubble time. Players will start to drop like dead flies on the table.

For me, it's the blinds not the number of players. I shift gears here and play this way all the way through to ITM. I thought everyone here did it this way.
