    Default (LC)Bad Bubble Play (6.50)

    Just posting some examples of common mistakes i find in WIZ when reviewing. Any tips on working on bubble pushes? Just review and try and memeorize situations?
    This one i actually thought it had changed to 100/200 (It did on a few of my tables) , but not until it 100/200 25 Ante would this become a good push (My assumption was his calling range was about 25%)

    BB (t3390)
    UTG (t3075)
    Button (t5060)
    Hero (t1975)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 2, Q.
    2 folds, Hero raises to t1975,

    Not sure about this one and why it's a bad call. If i readjust who pushes and make it the SB pushing into me not UTG , but have them set with the same range (20%). Is it because if i call and win vs SB than I'm ITM?

    Hand 1 (Q2s) - Although you're a bit deep to push here which is why Wiz probably shows it as -EV, I can't imagine that this shove is super -EV.

    Hand 2 (55) - I think it's showing up as -EV because of the other short stack around. If you had three even bigger stacks then I guess that this would be a +EV call/shove over. As you say, if the short stack had shoved into you it would be +EV because if you knock them out you're ITM, whilst if you win this hand you much less than doubled up your $EV.
