We're on the bubble, only 8 places are paid.... ainda the utg who is very tight is all in with 7 antes.... And we're in the button with 1 big blinds with KQ off suited, and we have two tight players on blinds???
How we play??? Its hard to fold.....

I put my blind in the pot, and the big blind is in the hand too...
Utg: AJ
Button me: KQ
Big blind:TT

Board KJT 9 9

And we stay in the money, how do you think about my play???

I know i have 1 bieber but, if I call and the utg wins, i don't cash that was my big question, i know with 1 bieber is easy all in, but the fold was profitable too... Let's the others loose first.... But i play good...

I think the better question is how did you get to 1 bb left?

Maybe he lost big pot but I agree that blinding down to less than 4 BBs is very bad play. I hate to get below 8.

Basically, any hand you have in the BB is going into the pot, no matter what you have.

I think they only way I can see you folding for 1 BB is if UTG shoved and everyone followed right behind. You could probably fold and get yourself practically GTD in the money, but some might say it's bad to fold there.

Like other's have said, don't get yourself down to 1BB if you can help it. It's different if you've taken a huge beat, but if you're letting yourself dwindle down pass 10BBs, you're playing way too tight. You also need to take into consideration the antes because they really eat into your stack fast. By the time blinds are 1K/2K, antes are 100. So, every time the button rotates back to you, you've paid an extra small blind or 2 BBs total.
