When your on the bubble its the best time to start getting tricky and pick your spots well. With PPs 2-7 i'll call a raise of 3xBB and no more unless im feeling its a good time to do a Stop n Go(call a preflop raise then push post flop regradless or if certain flops hit). I play for sets with those PP and hope to do my damage there if i don't hit my set and i'll fold to a bet depending upon its size once again no more than 3xBB. Unless im confident im taking my opponets stack if i hit then its down to implied odds if they warrant a call then im calling. If you have a good stack stay away from the big stacks and pick off the lower stacks don't ever turn down a coinflip against a smaller stack i.e. you have 88 he has AK call. If its against a bigger stack and you value making the money then i guess you can fold, but i wouldn't.
EDIT: Funny just now top 15 get paid I am 10/24. I have 5941 in chips BB is at 600 less than 10xBB. I get dealt 66, the sb completes. I go all in he has AJos. I lose but i'll take that everyday 55-45 favorite to double up and set me up in good position to make the final table.
