Playing the Bubble
We’re getting to the point where many of the short stacks are going to be fearing for their tournament lives. (About 300 more busts and the payouts begin.) Paul Sexton, who recently built his stack to 180k, talked about what he expects to see in the next couple of hours.
“The pros, guys like Allen Cunningham, who know how to play the big stack, are going to be taking pot. When you get near the bubble, you can minimum raise and take every pot for an hour.”
Sexton is at a table with no big names; he recognizes no one. There’s only one other significant stack on the table. You can expect him to try and pick up a lot of blinds and antes with continual steals.
