    Andrew1263 has 15 seconds left to act

    This was around the bubble (i'm about 60/82 with 72 getting paid) and I think I have a tighter than average image at the table, but I doubled up a short stack a few hands ago and now i'm low on chips.

    What are your thoughts about a shove here near the bubble? I think I need to get it all in with the blinds coming soon. Shove for the win or fold to the money is probably what decides your action?

    Shove FTW, especially if your image is strong and the table is playing relatively tightly.

    I think you have to shove, although the hand isn't great. Your opportunities are running out and there's no guarantee that you'll make the money anyway.

    Shove. You can't be worried about holding out for a min-cash, you'll rarely make it deep if you play that way. If a min-cash really helps your bankroll, play lower stakes.

    NBA JAM for like 500 reasons

    The biggest being everyone else has the same stack as you barring one person with (only) 27bb. I'm sure your jam so close to the bubble indicates strength. If you are worried about min-cashing be sure they are too.

    Def freeee chippies out there
