Default $33 200/400 on the bubble. This might be overkill.

SB is kinda a [censored] player, just trying to survive the bubble. I figure he calls the raise pretty wide and folds like almost everything. I can't imagine him flatting with a good hand here. How can he risk bubbling with 2 shorties as well? He calls w/ KK and I lose a huge amount of chips.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t200/t400
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t960
Button: t1180
SB: t4010
vers: t7350

Pre-flop: (4 players) vers is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises all-in t960</font>, Button folds, SB calls t760 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1560)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">vers raises all-in t7350</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB calls all-in t3050</font>.
Uncalled bets: t3340 returned to vers.

Ya, the shove is overkill. SB knows that shorty has to beat both of you to stay alive so he can actually call a lot wider than KK in this spot if he knows you're trying to abuse the bubble. Just call the extra 360 or w/e and hope he cooperates and checks it down.

This is a definite call/cooperate spot as far as im concerned. Button only has 3bbs left anyways and may bust soon as well, as played I think you are giving UTG a very good 60/40 (or better) shot at a 3k stack for no good reason.

How can SB risk bubbling with 2 shorties? As you said, hes a [censored] player!

So your plan was to triple up utg? I don't get this move, just get headsup with him,in 10 hands, no need to do some weird plays here.
