Default 109 Bubble hand

UB 100 9k guaranteed. 20 cash 21 left.
I have been sitting tight and have a good stack of 17k. CO has 6k. Blinds are 300/600.
I hold 77 on the button. Neither SB or BB can knock me out.
Villian seems average, not a pro and not a total moron.

Preflop: Folds to CO, CO raises to 2600, hero?


We have zero FE here, and how many hands does he really raise half his stack with in LP this close to the money? Are we being trapped or is this still a standard shove?

Is this his standard raise?
Probably Still a standard shove. And you'd be surprise how many people fold this on the bubble.

Nah most of his raises were standard up to this point in 3X range.

Given that his raise isn't standard, he's probably raising much tighter and never folding, so I would probably fold. I'm still not sure though.

Fold. It's just not worth it with pocket 7's, even if it's a coin flip. He may have a slightly higher PP and is happy to take the blinds. Why draw to two out as a 4:1 dog?

I don't see how he can raise to 2600 and not be a total moron.

I fold.

88 is a shove, 77 is if i feel like it

he's never doing this with QQ+

this is AJ+/KQ/66-JJ all day (and TT-JJ are way less common than AJ here_
