i completly disagree with the bubble strategy-u should be very agro b/c other people play tight. These tounies are also extremly top heavy so mincashing is not really worth it.#5

@ 4i agree... dont understand why ps supports one of the biggest leaks beginners have in mtts by telling them they are right to do so...

@4+6if you have a bigger stack aggro play on the bubble is ok, but you cant do it with a small stack cause big stacks will call you very light.

@4: Please have in mind that this strategy is dedicated to beginners which play mircostakes.I doubt you can sucessfully steal in e.g. 1$ MTTs without having a very good feeling for the gameflow and your opponents at the table. You can not expect a beginner to anticipate against which player he can steal or not.
Can you really confirm that players start getting tight arbount the bubble in micro stakes MTTs=?
Thus we are currently convinced that a less agressive strategy increases the ROI of unexperienced players.
If you move up in stakes you should of course try to abuse the bubble. But these topics apply in more advanced articles.
Best,
Tobias

@8: although you might be right that micro stakes are maybe not playing tighter ( although I highly doubt they are). bubbleling is not as bad as discribed here you only win 1.5 to 3 bi if you make it itm while shipping the mtt can easely make you 60 bi. So playing tighter then before on the bubble you suretantly will increase you chances of making the money but you don't give yourself a good chance to ship the tournament and shipping mtt's is what will make you the most money in the longrun and not many mincashes#11

ok i have to agree with the bubble play they describe here particularly in large entrant online torneys, getting aggressive isnt respected by the donks that have a huge stack from a single 5 - 10 player all in hand for example and they wont think twice about calling a blind steal when your chip stacks are relatively the same.and besides, from a certain point in the torney it there is so much variance possible because of the pressure the increased blinds put on players and so being a short stack can change in a few hands and vice versa

I agree with #4 and i quote from a pokerpro when I say "If I have a reasonably lage stack I would like the bubble to last as long as possible"
