How do You play in bubble game with medium pair?

Too general of a question to answer.

So many variables...

what exactly do u mean?

Depends of players and stacks. Usually fold. Depends of the position.

looks that way

Does that post??))) talking to myself.And so too difficult question many unknown nuances of the game.

What is even going on here?
General answer to general question is it depends.

If you're short stacked it's probably best to let it go or shove in late position.
If you have a large stack use it to put pressure on the medium and smaller stacks. Be more aggressive against shorter stacks that need to chip up as the bubble approaches. Don't cal with trash hands just because youre stack is bigger.

it all depends on position and stack depth. 20+ BB in early position to hi Jack open raise 2,5 BB and fold to a push from the stack of 10+BB. After hi Jack, we have ourselves play 15-25 BB stack. Well, this is for games with more or less average stack

Need more information, best would be to provide a complete actual hand for discussion. This question has been asked. A lot.

it all depends on what your stack if less than 20 big blinds, you can simply go to the ALL in, but if the stack is greater then it is better to play as usual, because firstly, there is a chance take a big pot, and secondly the probability to fly will be less if the flop is bad for us, and fold, we still have ...

Yeah

3 bet. cbet
or fold and forget about it

Several ways

1. Open Raise

2. Re-raise

3. 3-bet

4. All-in

5. Call

6. Fold


Bad question - bad response

It depends, but if it's bubble game as you said, should be played aggressively in general

How do You play in bubble game with medium pair?

It depends on how many big blinds you have and your position.

All in or fold.

Depends on many factors really, position, skill level, stack sizes and of course the size of the pocket pair. I personally wouldn't shove anything below 10's unless you are fairly certain that the bet will get through. I'm never shoving low pairs from EP. It rarely works out for me. You know your gonna end up against bigger pairs some of the time you have them.

It depends on my stack if high I's all in the bubble to end soon and already being awarded.

So glad I stumbled upon this! This thread is hilarious!

There are many variables bro. Just be sure that you're shoving LATE positions into small stacks and you should fair ok most of the time. Good luck!

push allin medium pairs sometime is not bad. but if you push 77 from UTG... and some question. which bubble do you mean? SNG? good game, continue to do that. or MTT? need to think about many factors, like previously said

This question is not easy to answer. There are many factors play a role in the decision. It can be a whole article to write about it.

I dont play normally till I get in to money.If I go out of tournament on bubble I feel I have wasted all my time .So i dont play on bubble.

I play with a raise and give up on the Action

unless I'm the chip lead with good possition and know what my opps are playing it's a 3-4bb raise, maybe limp or cold call. But no pushes for me =)

I ussually raise 4bb,but depends of position and stacks,all in pre-flop is not the best play,i always want to see how hand goes.

Here it depends on the stack. If you have over 20 blinds you should wait for others to go all in, it is important for you to get in the prize pool.

You might get caught when raising all in ( scenario , if nobody raised , you are up to act, and you go all in with 55, 66, 77 ( dealer , small blind) you might get called by the SM , BB with cards like k6, k7, A2, A3. you will see this type of play on pokerstars.. you might get out of the tournament if you find this type of player .

So stay safe.

on the bubble I always play carefully, it does not matter if I have to AA or 23

Depends on ICM, stack sizes, antes, skill level of the table etc.

On a really tight table you could obviously shove a lot wider and pick up plenty of blinds and antes.

what a nice joke! play this way ever and you'll be the winner for centures! At least other players will say so.

take into consideration , that if you have 77 in UTG , and you go all in and you have a small stack , you might get called by the BB with 88, and u´re out of the tournament. too risky as a play.

Well , the answer here is not that simple .
If I was playing a SNG I would think of my stack , position , the value of this middle pair and I would decide accordingly to these factors . If I was low stack I would shove more low pocket pairs .
If it was a tournament I would decide more carefully dependingly on position and stacks how I would play a pair .But on a tournament , if I werent the big or medium stack I wouldn't choose to play them if there wasn't a need if the prize pool was big . Generally on the bubble I avoid playing them , except if I have less than 18bb and its a good pair so I shove it on position , but if I am the have a medium stack I play it usually by limping oop or raising op or calling a raise on position

your question is very general. mainly depends from your stack and from your position. and from the stacks after u. also there is difference if u hold 55 or 88

throwing it away, and away! No any average pairs on bubble! Give me a straight or flush on the board!

I better throw

Well, ICM has made the decisions so easy that you should just download an ICM chart and play the bubble (Medium to short stack) using the shove or fold chart which tells you hand and position with what to do (Shove or fold).

It should be called :"Arguing with myself")

But all-in, I do not go, unless of course my stack is 2BB, then you can take a chance)))

I don't vary my game too much - the answer to this, as others have said, mainly relies on position and how tight or loose the table is.

it means what card you have if monster hand i play agressive to kick opponent if hand bad wait
