    No-limit bubble strategy

    I've been having a tough go at finishing out tournaments lately and have been busting out on the bubble pretty much regularly. The best strategy I've ever seen discussed was attacking the middle stacks since they have the most to lose. Any thoughts or insights?! I play $50 sng's and up.

    So we're talking SNG strategy?

    If so, what is SNG structure? ( How many players, what are payouts )

    Can't really expect any decent advice without the basics. Where you're playing, the blind structure and what stakes your playing for is also very relevant.

    If this is a troll you got me.

    Where are you playing that runs tourneys with 20-25 players and only top 3 pay?

    What are the stakes?

    Can you share a basic summary of blind structure?

    If they pay top 3, and your bubbling. Well with four left usually there is one or two short stacks, and blind structure so fast, that top two stacks are really not that deep either. If your the short stack, your going to blind out if you don't pretty much ship it any reasonable hand. The idea in general of attacking middle stacks doesn't seem to apply as well in any sitngo structure I've played.

    Now in regular tournaments, especially tournaments with slower structures there are more opportunities to attack a middle stack since you might be at close to a full table, where there maybe two big stacks, 3or4 middle stacks, maybe 2 short stacks.
