Default Re: $109 33 on bubble

Why not use the 900 preflop to raise to 1200? If he shoves you fold and your in same position. I suspect your 900 bet after the flop was very transparent with that flop? He knows if your betting the 6 he will push you off and if you had 10 you would most certainly check to the raiser. He had position so call preflop and fold post or put your 900 in early.

I disagree with the shove, as well, in some situations. Basically, this is what it comes down to for me...

Decision A: Shove - I shove if the player is a decent player who has some sort of grasp of bubble play or who I know raises small with hands that he is prepared to fold on the bubble.

Decision B: Fold - I will fold (and I usually will) under these conditions: The SnG player is a thinking player and is minraising with a good hand hoping you will come over the top to put the pressure on him in this bubble scenario, or; The player is an idiot and will call you even with a bad hand.

Edit: And as a side note I think under almost all circumstances here calling is the worst play. This isn't really suported by any theory or math, just from what I have seen / experienced for myself.
