I love trying to bubble. OK so I'm getting 2:1 and this guy has already restolen me once. He moved in pretty fast and in this case I thought that showed some weakness. I doubt this call is correct 2 from the bubble but I'd love some comments on this one. I river good again.

I thought this was a pretty obvious call at first but he's not super short and he'd pushed the hand before so it's more likely he's hoping to get called this time with a strong hand. I think it's still a call but it might be kinda close.
