    I'd squeeze/shove pre here, happy to either take the pot or get in a double or bust situation. With only 10BB behind you should be in shove or fold mode. A min raise is useless, you're always going to be called and there's almost certainly going to be an overcard on the flop.

    On the bubble some players would advocate check/folding while they hold on for the min-cash, it depends how valuable the min cash is to you.

    Funnily enough I picked up TT on the BB while typing up this reply. As you can see I practise what I preach.

    I dunno im 50/50, sometimes i would shove here. if you raise as you do once overcard on flop would not commit maybe bet less 1800 and if someone shoves you know your beat so can fold and have 2700ish behind

    probably better shoving pre

    id just been moved to the table but had already seen some strange hands lol and thought i have a gd chance of a double up if i can play a flop as im sure he insta folds to a pre flop shove!!
    when he shows q 8 i knew he'd just got lucky so i dont think it was the worst idea and around the bubble the big stacks i find tend to be loose so thought perfect opportunity to build a stack to reach the final 6 but there we go!!!
