What do u do in this spot????  We are on the final table bubble and i'm sitting 4/10 atm.  The player hasnt really got too out of line, but have seen him raising A10 and KQ from early postion with full table.

I'd make the call.  You already have 20% of your chips in the pot.  His range is wide open on what he shoves with there if he is raising early pos with A10.  Once you make the call, just run good.

Don't Sweat the Technique.

Before you act you should always think about what u will do if some pushes on u.

but after putting 20% of ur stack in I would find it hard to fold.

 

open shoving is ok i suppose folding is fine also if ur a complete nit i think raise folding is pretty weak tho

i cant find the hand history, but i did call here, he turns over AQ and off to the races we go.  good after the flop, good after the turn, and well, if u know me, u know I got beat on the "RIVER"

I'm not online but every so often, but if you need to reach me and can't get ahold of me, you can send a pm to "holdemplayer81" as well, since I run the ISU-MF account.

Do you owe me Cake ?

Anytime you are on a bubble, no matter what your stack size, you need to ask yourself before you commit any chips to the pot whether or not you are willing to go all the way with this one, then bet/raise accordingly so as to avoid spots like this. If you open shoved, you might get a walk, but odds are the a q still calls. By just doing a small raise, you left the door open for the guy to steal that pot from you.
