Random HH from $109 - how to wield the big stack on the bubble

[robilaruk]

At this point I have a large chip lead against two equal stacks, both of who have settled for 2nd (as you will see). So for folks who don't know how to bully have a look, this is standard practice, so if nothing else, see what the big stacks are doing to you, and maybe stand up to them next time with a 'marginal' hand if the price is right.

Their problem was that neither of them wants to go out without getting some cash (bless em ), which means when one busts out to me, they will be severely short stacked (unless they stand up to me and hit a hand to have a chance)
