    You're in a push-fold situation on the bubble. Calling is out of the question (absolutely not calling)!!!!!!!! You don't have odds to set-mine.

    Good bubble play would indicate you have "No Fold Equity." You are facing a raise pot situation. At best, you are in a race with over cards. You are behind [6,6]+ over half of the pairs (2/3rd of the time). You are drawing to two outs and likely in trouble.

    I'd suggest: you should fold.
