Re: LC: Cure for bubbling
[ QUOTE ]
For low buy ins the answer is simple.
You bubble more than you should because often times folding is a VERY +EV play if your opponents are prone to calling all ins way too much.
Example: on the bubble and everyone has 2000 chips with blinds of 100/200 and you have a marginally plus ev hand on the button. You put the BB on a wide calling range and the you know the SB will push any two into the BB. Lets say that if you push here it's marginally +EV, BUT it's MORE +EV to fold and have the bubble burst a lot of the time.
Think about it, how can you beat sngs when people call too much? You'll see these calls way more at the $6 tables than the $215's but nobody would claim that the latter was easier. $EV can be gained in many ways don't think that pushing or calling decisions that are +$EV are necessarily the optimal play at certain tables.

This is great advice!
