This happens frequently to us all, but don't worry if you got the odds then go all-in if you are shortstacked. Sometimes you gotta to take risks in the poker game.

BS.. of course you can if you have the chips to do it.. in fact its imperative that you steal when its close to the bubble if you have anything like a good stack.
And it wasn't a case of stealing, he was defending his BB with AA.. hardly stealing...

Now that’s bad luck: You did what you had to to, chipleader did what he had to do and table brought the wrong cards for you. Once there was a forum here about quiting big hands just to guarantee you get to the prizes. With AA, it would be the most difficult ever to fold. Next time will be a lot better, you’ll see…

You had the stack to be in a good place in the money. So i believe you could wait for the bubble to be in the money. I assume that last place was paying good since first had 900$. Some may not agree and their only purpose is the first place, but that depends on your play and history of course. For example i have lost too in the bubble more than once with Aces, and couple of them i was deep in the money too. No more though. I play them just a normal hand till we get in the money I dont risk with any card left out of the money while in bubble and having the stack.

I really hope someone tell us how to fold AA pre - flop. Did expert ever do that ? or yeah ...sometimes we have to depend on luck . Not nice situation for me.
