lay off my blind $27

ehh, villain is loose and bad and is obviously raising a wide range here on the button, however hes so bad its to the point where there are not many hands hes going to fold. (juding by the hand he called me with, he is calling with any 2 cards he raised with.)

so basically, im ahead most of the time I get the $ in, but I'm risking my stack on the bubble most of the time.

w33ktight this is not w33ktight.

I don't like it - you don't have enough to get him to fold and A4o might be ahead but it doesn't hold up often enough.

While it frustrating when the big stack is raising every hand before you on the bubble don't let your emotions get the best of you.

this looks like a really easy fold to me.

if you were like 6 handed this would be a good play against certain opponents...not so much here.

If you're going to shove your stack with this hand, you need to be the one opening the pot.

I think with your stack you can shove AT+, KQ+, 88+. I'm not so sure about the stop-n-go, since you'll have limited FE by calling away half your stack PF. If villian has any sense they'll know you're getting the rest of your chips in....whether betting them or calling them.

i think KQ is to weak here, AT+ maybe yes, 88+ ok, depends (77+ or 99+ also good options).

someone run some numbers on this but my ninjaintuition says that even if he's shoving 100% we have to be a lot tighter than AT+ and 88+

maybe
