PKO MTT Bubble Question
I posted this in the wrong place so I decided to try it over here:
So I know the game may have totally passed me by but I thought this was a bit strange:
On the bubble of 55$ 20k guarantee PKO
Preflop:
Cibatta 32bb (UTG): Raise 2bb
Danutzzz 26bb (SB): Call 2bb
BigPoppa 18bb (BB/Hero): (As9c) Call 2bb
Flop: 3d6c9s
Danutzzz (SB): Bets 4.5bb
BigPoppa (BB): All in 16bb
Cibatta (UTG): All in 30bb
Danutzzz (SB): Calls
So I want to preface that I am aware of PKO concepts and how my bounty makes it more enticing for people to call off light. What I am failing to wrap my mind around is the call off when a player with a bigger stack 4 bet shoves on the bubble post flop. I know if I win this hand I likely dont think twice about it but I cant say I had ever encountered a situation like this. Us being 3 hours into the tournament and him not having any similar prior plays made it seem a bit aberrant as well. Just a sicko in a perfect storm? Or is this actually a call and I'm just woefully ill informed?

I would've checked
Which player are you?
Danutzzz's play makes no sense. But there are a lot of, like, boom-level bad casual players on the site.

Every time I'm trying to figure out the range of someone on gold, they either flip over something close or something insane. There is like no in-between on gold. Either slightly decent or a blindly clicking buttons.
Strange play indeed.
Trying to figure out the thought process of someone who doesn’t know what the **** they are doing is a futile exercise.
I have never seen anything like this in my entire life. But I haven't played online in many years.
Still there is no possible justification for what AJ did here after 2 all ins. Also there is no justification for the lead donk against a BB and a UTG opener who can have 99+. So this player is absolutely awful. Especially because after his ridiculous donk and 2 all ins with absolutely no FE he calls.
Now you haven't mentioned what the PKO is for you (BigPoppa) but I'm guessing there is no way it made the call justifiable.
