    I am fairly new to pocket5's and online MTT's...Can you guys gives some examples of how to "abuse the bubble." Is this something that can only be done with a big stack? i'm not afraid of the bubble and i believe i play to win but i seem to lose chips around the bubble no matter what the size of my stack is. Thank guys...you all have taught me a lot.

    something to always consider is how the player is reacting to the bubble themself. If they have tightened up due to the bubble approaching then attack their blinds, but if they started to open up then you can repop or simply avoid. Just be aggressive toward the people you have covered for fear of you knocking them out. If a big stack has been laid back then go after him as well. I try not to steal from big aggressive stacked players who i know will repop me on the bubble. All in all, attack midstacks avoid big and short stacks. GL
