Either bet about the pot or push, it doesnt really matter which.

The bubble situation makes this really gross, but I think a push is the play. I totally disagree with potting it, you'll just encourage him to go over the top.

Shove

Shoving is essentially the same as potting here. There's 1100 in the pot and villain only has 1375. If I put in 900-1000 there's no way he's gonna think he can make me fold for an extra 400.

Fenef,

Why do you think the bubble situation makes this gross? We are up against a stack shorter than us in this hand and wont be in horrible shape even if we lose. Also the pot is 1100 and his stack is 1300, there isn't much difference.

I like to push preflop here.

Sorry! thought we were against the big stack.

I still say push, but potting it isn't bad, it's just unncessary.
