I am chip leader with close to $4.5k.
Second approximately 3.8k (Player A)...third 2.2k and shortest stack just over 1k.
Blinds are 100-200. I'm BB.
Player A raises button to 418...everyone folds...i re-raise to 1200, he moves all in and i can call with my JJs. He has K8 suited and hits trip 8s, cripples me and i end up going out on the bubble!
Should i have played this differently? I was thinking maybe raise to 1k and fold to a re-raise allin? or maybe even move all in the first time round as opposed to raising to 1200 and allowing to come on top? Just call and play small ball? Bearing in mind that i was on the bubble.....

i would fold on a bubble, especially because I personally do not think JJ is some very very strong hand, and its a pity to stay without reward if u was chip leader :/ if you was short stacked its ok to move all in with JJ...
Anyway you also got hard unlucky there...if he hited K its ok but triple 8 ;S that sux :/
