Post-bubble game issues

[Eldictador10]

Hello good, I have some doubts, I arrive at prize bubbles but I can't progress in the tournament or I arrive with very short stacks and they end up eating my blinds, or I pay with anything. There are any books or videos that they recommend for those instances of play.

Just don't play the bubble, it usually helps you win prizes. There will always be those who don't really need prize money. But if you only have 1-2 big blinds left, and you're in last place, then you need to wait for the right moment and rely on luck.

If you feel, that you struggle with this, maybe try to completely forget "the big picture" and play hand for hand. Meaning that you just pretend, its a cash game and think about, how do I play this best against those two opponents. Failing to adjust for ICM is probably less of a problem than, what you are doing right now.

Or maybe you dont even have a "post-bubble game issue", but the problem is something completely different like aligning your expectations with reality. If 360 players min-cash in a large field MTT, then only 1 in 40 of them will reach the final table. This is not "an issue" but just the way, these games work.
