Re: AK on bubble
Quick question: How close to the bubble are you? If you are playing for satellite seats (meaning there is no difference between 1st & the last paid place), then all you need to do is survive the bubble. Unless you are short stacked vs. the field, then risks are unnecessary.
I remember seeing somewhere an extreme example (one of the books I read. Somebody chime in if they remember which one). One off the bubble in a satellite, a player in the middle of the pack picks up AA. In this scenario, it is best to fold the aces. The book pointed out the math and how playing the hand is -EV because all the prizes are the same.
Food for thought.
