Final Table Bubble Hand
So we've made a mad dash from 2 full tables to 2 tables of 5 handed play, ready to merge to the final table. Yes we're in the money. I'm the shorty but feel my stack still retains some fold equity, albeit not for long. This is the 2nd hand dealt while being 5 handed. The first went similarly with a raise and an all in reraise that won the pot preflop. I was not involved in that hand.
Is there anybody who doesn't get all the chips in here and if so what's your line to avoid it? Also curious to hear who likes a stop n go better than a preflop push here.

easy push [/ QUOTE ] I agree. Was wondering if there would be any dissenters, or even some stop n go fans but apparently not. |

Re: Final Table Bubble Hand
this is no easy push. UTG min raises you can just call i dont like this but still an option. I myself would fold. your not beating that many hands and you can pick a better a spot. you have an M of a litte over 5. To me this means that you still have some time. granted its 5 handed still I believe you can pick a better spot.

Re: Final Table Bubble Hand
Call me crazy but I do not see folding as an option whatsoever. I don't dislike a stop n go, but I prefer a push. Anybody else?

Re: Final Table Bubble Hand
i missed that you were on the BB. in this case i believe calling is a must but i still dont like pushing.

Re: Final Table Bubble Hand
push unless you've seen him minraise with a monster before. Stopngo is bad because you still have a lot of fold equity. He could very easily have QT or something and would fold to a push. Or he could have Q4 and you'd want to get the money in preflop. Push.

Re: Final Table Bubble Hand
I like the stop'n'go here or just calling and reevaluate after the flop, but at 5 handed, 99 is pretty strong, I'm guessing I push and pray. Folding is not an option. My reads on Villian here would also play a huge factor on what I do. If he's a LAG I push for sure, TAG, maybe I just call.

IMO, this is standard with 99 and your stack size. Any lower pairs, I might wait until i could be the first one in the pot, but right now you are ahead of any unpaired hands and more than half the pocket pairs (only 5 pp's better than yours). |
