    Default $10 + .80 Double or Nothing Bubble Situation with 77 MP

    365 Chips left the next time the blinds reach me I am done. 77 looks pretty good at this point accept that everyone can easily call. Do I wait for better position or take my chances now?

    I'm pretty sure the correct decision here is to fold, as a push will probably result in people calling very wide, in order to try and check the hand down and get ITM. I've pushed in this sort of situation before though, and had everyone fold.

    I ran it through SNG Wiz, and considering the BB is calling 100%, I couldn't find ranges for the other players that would make this a push. This is why I don't play this silly format!

    My heart says shove, but then you got a guy that's only at 605 chips too, so if you get a spot to push anything against just a person or two you could double and be ahead of that guy.

    They are quite profitable, if annoying....
