Standart sh... Bubble session KK not fold , push is right.


but my chances to get higher in the money were small even if i double up there.. so maybe its possible to consider folding any 2 ?!

Keep fighting till your last bullet (chip) _evil:. Never give up.

Double up now, and again on next hand, means your stack X 4.

Never fold KK preflop excepting a very few particular situations. :)


zzzzzzzzzz
push is the only play ou can do here.
if you fold this one, go and shot yourself
you have 3,5 BB left and the second best hand in poker---- PUSH PUSH PUSH


If you're gonna fold KK, what are you going to play?

Of course, if you have one stack, you can get away from the PC and wait till the last short stack falls to be ITM, but here you are short, KK PUSH is the ONLY.

Unfortunatelly you got totally unlucky here.

Yesterday I played a hand in a turbo, in the bubble. Had 88 from MP and went all in. The BB called me with 53 (lol) and hit 2 pairs in the flop (omg).

I got eliminated 3 hands later.
