The one player is about to go out, but I've seen these tiny stacks recover before. Should I have pushed or should I have waited for the tiny stack to maybe go out? I hate going out on the Bubble in these types of situations...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 1.5 Tournament, 105/210 Blinds 21 Ante (4 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from http://flopturnriver.com

BB (t1,600)
UTG (t1,837)
Button (t153)
Hero (SB) (t910)

Hero's M: 2.28

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q, 10
2 folds, Hero raises to t889 (All-In), BB calls t679

Flop: (t1,862) 10, J, 10 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Turn: (t1,862) A (2 players, 1 all-in)

River: (t1,862) 5 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: t1,862

Results below:

Spoiler

Hero had Q, 10 (three of a kind, tens).
BB had A, 3 (two pair, Aces and tens).
Outcome: Hero won t1,862

Hi Navrark!
I prefer not to push here. BTN has less than bb so he will be all-in when blinds get to him. So risk here is to high. Especialy if BB is some loose player, which will call you wider than he should. Also he have nothing to loose, basicaly. So I would push here only AA. I am not sure even about KK. As akromman says in his coachings, if you win, you are not yet ITM and if BB wins you are out. So I recomend you not to take that risk, when you have such a shortie at the table. :f_wink:

GL at the tables!
