Lesson 27 · Short stacks, bubbles, and ICM pressure · 24 practice questions
Tournament short stacks create low SPR by default. Commit with top pair+; fold marginal hands faster.
With 15bb or less, many spots become push/fold. Overpairs and top pair often commit.
Near the bubble, tighten up — survival has value. Avoid marginal spots.
• Short stacks = low SPR, commit with top pair+.
• Push/fold with <15bb effective.
• ICM: tighten near bubble, avoid marginal spots.
Tournament, 20bb effective. Flop A-7-2, you hold TPTK, villain bets pot. Best action?
Board: A♠ 7♦ 2♣
Your hand: A♥ K♦
Best action: Call
Why: ✓ call is the best choice here.
ICM makes busting out costlier than chips won, so you play tighter near pay jumps and bubbles — avoiding thin stack-offs the pure-chip (cash) math would call correct.
On the bubble the risk of busting just before the money outweighs the reward of extra chips, so marginal spots that are break-even in chips become clear folds under ICM.
