I probably shove hand 9 and hand 10 PF. These games kind of suck where your just itching for a spot to open push something but it continually gets raised behind you.

Default Re: Bubble, Am i doinging anything majorly wrong?

I'm pushing hands 3 and 9. on number 3 it's the usual large stack bullying short stack on the button. Q 10 suited is not stellar but you may very well be ahead of his raising range preflop and will probably fold at these low stakes games.

By hand number 9 at only 5 times the BB/ an M of 3 (The amount of rounds you can play) your desperate. There are only 3 other players and the blinds are on to you next A 2 suited is weak when on a full table but short handed and short stacked it's a strong hand probably favourite more often than not.

now by hand 10 obviously not doing any of the above you now have 800 chips with 200 in the pot. UTG just flat calls and again at $6 stt's mean very little.
Usually a hand they just want to see a flop with, he's large stack so he can afford to just flat call. 10 9 off is an above average hand to push with so push. If he calls it could be with any two cards, weak to middle pair or two over cards.
He's more than likely raising with 10's or 9's. If he has A 10, K 10 etc tough luck. Your still only a 3 to 1 underdog so all hope isn't lost just yet.

Hands 3 and 9 were the main reason i posted this bubble. I was desperate to open push but as you mention big stack kept protecting the pot, my FE was marginal. I guess i wanted to see if you guys liked QT's for a push/resteal.

Hand 9 was the first time villan had limped in entire game which looked a bit smelly to me. I was going to push at flop if it came rags.

Thanks gents, much appreciated.

Bad spots all around.

I push hand 9 everytime. You're short, they're suited, and you really can't afford to have the blind hit you next hand.

Hand 3 is based on reads. Is the big stack in the BB going to push ATC into the other small stack? If so, you can afford to fold. Both of the short stacks will be close in chips. If big stack is giving that guy a pass, then you have to push.

Lot's of hands with really hard decisions there.
