Getting a good but not the top starters - I consider myself not as agressive as needed near the bubble, having 5-10 BB within stack. Better the trash then.

To not get in prize ? So strange question :D But if it is low buy in tournament than I can go all in anyway. I will never fold AA or KK or QQ!

It just makes me nervous to be the bubble man.
I think the great players are the ones who do just that, press with all the chips because it is the bubble moment, and thus considerably increase their stock

I love it. I get more aggressive because alot of people try to save chips and make more 💰 and i try to bully em regardless wether in or out the 💰. I always try to distract players as well.. Good luck and practice and hopefully you can dominate.:D

I think I feel the same as everyone else .. maximum feelings ... how not to lose when there is just a little bit left, and it is incredibly pleasant when you get out, that whole gamut of emotions .. that's why we probably love poker, but lose. nobody likes

:cool: It depends on the situation, it depends on the type of tournament, it all depends, if I am short of chips, the cost of entry.

when I get to this stage I’ve already picked up the pace of the game and the nerves under control

In my case, what makes me very nervous is trying to understand that a player bets all his chips with the possibility of not reaching the goal:confused::confused:


On the contrary, the bubble is the very thing to make chips.

what makes me nervous close to the bubble in any game is the mere fact that premium hands, strong pairs like AA KK QQ gets cracked by garbage hands with low blinds or jus as even as you are

The bubble is the time to gain chips everyone folding or limping in

This is undoubtedly a small stack. Sometimes this is preceded by not falling asleep before the game.

I get really nervous when I am dealt a big pair or AKs and facing a raise or an all in preflop ! Go for it or fold and wait ? Go figure !
Unfortunately, I make the same mistake several times. I don't wait and when someone wins with weak hand, it annoys me!

Maybe you are right. But I think that to be aggressive you should have good hands:confused:

Before the bubble, you need to focus as much as possible.Especially if you are not a chip leader.And even more so, you should not be nervous so as not to make mistakes.Remember what you were taught at the game before the bubble-full concentration.Prizes are nearby-and when the bubble bursts, everything is in your hands!)

getting good hands and betting and a big stack go crazy and bad beats me. it happens more often than i would like
I agree, it happens so often. When you are short stacked you always seem to get crappy hands until just before the bubble... why can't they wait until after the bubble.;)

To beat the bubble to your advantage, you need to understand the game at various stages of tournaments. Sitting on the bubble and getting nervous is not for me, nerve cells are not restored.:)

In general I think being near the bubble and short stacked is always nerve-wracking, especially if you get mid-range hands in good spots and have to go all in. Have to make the right plays, but missing out on the $ is rough.
