99% of decent poker players seem to agree that playing aggressive around the bubble is the best strategy because that is when almost everyone tightens up to avoid getting knocked out. If the second part of that statement were true, then sure. My issue with this is that at the <$11 buy in tourneys on PSTARS everyone seems to be ultra aggressive on the bubble. Anyone else notice the same trend?
By my eye, there's about a 50/50 chance that at least 3/9 players go all in preflop every hand.
So, I think, if this is happening, then playing tight on the bubble will be more profitable. I'll still agree that taking advantage of any tight players on the table is crucial at this stage, but to just automatically get aggressive seems misguided. Thoughts?
