    Default Routine call on the bubble?

    Pot odds are massively in my favour here especially considering we know villain is likely to be pushing ATC before its the big stacks BB next hand.
    Obviously this isn't the only consideration on the bubble.

    If I call and lose I've got 1300 chips compared to the short stack on 930 so it's not a case of win or bust yet. If your choice is fold here, how many chips do you think you need to have to make this call?

    If I call and win I've got approx 3.5k and am also certain to get heads up.

    Button (t960)
    SB (t1180)
    Hero (t2260)
    UTG (t9100)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
    1 fold, Button raises to t960 (All-In), 1 fold, Hero calls t460.

    Flop: (t2170) , , (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Turn: (t2170) (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: (t2170) (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Final Pot: t2170

    Your getting 3-1 on your call.
    Villian should be pushing with any hand.
    Your still in 3rd even if you lose this hand.

    Easy Call.

    edit:
    I think a better question would be how many chips would the villian need to have before you consider folding.

    Terrible call. Your role is let UTG dictate the bubble. Shitty spot for you because your frozen with him on your left, but you have to fold here.

    EDIT: NVM. I got your stack mixed with the SB's stack. Yeah. You call here.
