Party 200 bubble decision
I kinda got addicted to these party tourneys. I play them to unwind but my roomate was watching today and disagreed with my play. I guess I will leave it up to the the forum.
4 players left, SB has 1800, BB has 1800, I have 4800 UTG and button has 1600. Blinds are 200-400 with 6 hands left. I have KJo. Whats my play? Sorry if this is an obvious play, my tourney play is very unadvanced. |

Re: Party 200 bubble decision
With everyone else having similar stacks and you being the only big stack, I would push here with almost any two, and certainly with KJ. 4 handed, most players are going to fold in order to put pressure on the other two short stacks, so you should take advantage of this situation before it gets down to 3 people.

The reason is that if they wait any longer their stacks will diminish by 1/3 and they will be essentially blinded out. Put yourself in their situation, what would you call with? |

Re: Party 200 bubble decision
I would go allin. Perfect time to use your bigstack, and you have a legitimate hand. No one wants to call you and come in 4th place, so they will likely fold better hands than yours.

Push, and your opponents would be wrong to call you with anything smaller than JJ or so.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah I see what you're saying, but you'll find that more often than not, they will actually fold hands that may be correct to call with for fear of busting out on the bubble. You won't find a better time to bully than the situation you described... you're on the bubble with a big stack and the other 3 are similar sized and a lot smaller than yours. |

Re: Party 200 bubble decision
I disagree. I think you should raise to 5xBB.
