Default Re: Satelllite bubble hand with questions

My thoughts:

UTG played that hand terribly. Push pf with JTs, don't bet 25% of your stack. Or better yet, FOLD with 2 short stacks behind. The only reason I'd push is to stop AQ from calling and steal from the short BB with the CL is in the SB. Limping is worse than betting or folding in a Sat bubble.

You pushed with a very difficult hand, but were a 2:1 favorite when you got the chips in. My only question: did you really think it necessary to double up to win a seat? 3rd & 4th are a dead heat here. You only needed to out-last him to claim a prize.

If you felt like the 4 of you were evenly matched in SAT play (CL won't be playing ANY hand under QQ), then I's prolly use all of my time bank and push with AQ. Calling with JTs for your SAT life is worse than raising to begin with. Odds or no odds . . .
