    How has MP2 been playing so far?

    Worst case: He has a hand

    Best case: coin flip

    Fold on the bubble imo

    Why dont you have fold equity??
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    It was the bubble, and I wasn't even sure my hand is best. He 4x raises against a BB who has him covered, looks like a hand to me that some people hate to play postflop, TT-QQ, AK, maybe KQs. Even the bigger stacks were playing tight at this point, btw.

    Easy allin IMO.

    He's calling with anything he raises with and that's going to be mostly coinflips and 60/40s, occassionally hands like AT or KJ that you're killing and rarely stuff that crushes you. Fuck the bubble, just ship it in and try to get out of this shortstack you've wound up with.
