How do they handle a short stack in a KO tournament bubble?

[Recrea_pkr]

When I'm in a tournament and we came to the bubble with a very short stack, I didn't know if it was better to wait for others to fall to enter prizes or risk with a strong hand and in what position to do it
What strategy do you use in the prize bubble? I usually prefer to wait to enter prizes

Especially in a KO tournament, being in the bubble isn't great as the shortest stack. What I would do is simular to what you say, since people are more inclined to call you since your demise will offer a bounty:

• Narrow your range, for instance on 9 ring play only move all in with premium hands.
• Wait it out and hope someone else will move all in before you. Remember that in poker sometimes multiple people on the table get dealed a great hand.
• If you are getting bullied by someone with weaker hands adjust your range accordingly. To prevent from getting exploited and blinded out completely. I usually lower my shoving range a bit under 10bb and drastically under 5bb.

I think it's the same for any tourney, going deep is far better than a min cash....,

maybe if someone is going out the next hand I guess... but better to take those shots

with a strong hand as you say, obviously better to be

the one shoving instead of calling... 👍

Cuando estoy en un torneo y llegamos a la burbuja con un stack muy corto, no sabía si era mejor esperar a que cayeran los demás para entrar a premios o arriesgarme con una mano fuerte y en qué posición hacerlo.
¿Qué estrategia usas en la burbuja de premios? Normalmente prefiero esperar para participar en los premios.

I normally expect them to be eliminated, I adjust and take advantage of each time chip strategically, premium hands if the. Most of the time I would play all in, but if the goal is to first collect and then reach ft, I would shoot until aa and kk, greetings

I usually expect that other players go all in and some one to be busted,and play all in only with AA,KK and AK suited and off suited and some time went all with QQ and AQ

On the bubble I tighten up if super short, but with a good hand in late position I’d rather shove than blind out.

It depends on if its a big oder small tournament. Small buy ins do not effect my pushing range much, but in big buy ins i am very tight pushing.
