Welcome to my world. By far...the weakest part of my game. I tend to play way to tight at the bubble which leads me to have to make a desperate call just to stay alive. If you are Bubble Girl....well I am Bubble Boy😡!!

Option 2 sit and wait only play the big hands even close to the bubble..... patience is a virtue

Aggressive players tend to take advantage of you near the bubble. Make the call if you have the cards. Your odds of winning are still the same and you don't want to be in poor chip position heading to the finish. Otherwise you end up short stacked after the bubble burst. Then you make the desperation bet and end up out with just you buy in back or a little better. Remember, your playing to win, not just to cash.

I agree in full that patience is a virtue... the cards will come to you sooner or later and just wait till your in position to steal the blinds to keep yourself alive and going...

I was a bubble boy awhile back and now have become VERY aggressive on pots when the bubble approaches because no one wants to bubble... I usually gain anywhere and depending on what tourney 25% - 50% of my chip stack...

So patience and timing...

Best of luck in your next game,
Moe.
