Default Pushing K3o on bubble ??

Foe calls with any A, K, Q, and I was caught stealing with Q9 a few hands back. I figure with the blinds this high I cant survive without stealing more

He's calling with well over 50% of his hands. You have K-nothing (meaning coinflip if you're lucky) and you have 8BB after posting the SB.

Yuuuuuuuck.

I rarely have a problem with pushing out of the SB with <10BB and any two cards, but if he really is calling that often, I'd let it go.

This is what i hate about this hand, its 55% against any one random and I have no FE with this guy. It's either push and pray or sit around and have the chips cut into me while I squeak into 3rd place as a short stack.

Is villain REALLY calling with any face?

Regardless, I think you have to push, and pray that he has Q3 or some other garbage.

Yeah, i saw him push A3, A8, A5, QT, and Q9..
Also, I buddied up to him early in the game and he commented on a hand statng that he assumed the short stack was psuhing any two cards and that any ace will do.

I don't think that's the case. Stacks are 2500 2000 1800 1700. You seem to be in fine shape, and don't have to "squeak" anywhere. Find a better spot.

What villain is pushing with and calling with are most likely two very different ranges...
