Default Re: Bubble openpush from button with 79s: correct, or no?

Apparently I may need to think about these situations more, because my thought process has usually been that if I don't think my steal target will fold, I don't steal. Yeah, if we get called here, we're probably still fine vs. his range, but isn't it more important to try to pick up chips with as little risk as possible when you can? I mean, I know we need chips to win and everything, but don't you think we can find either a hand with better showdown value, or a target who obviously fears the bubble more than this guy?

Again, as I said originally, in a vacuum I shove this all day. But if I'm thinking this guy is going to call light, why push with 9 high?
