Actually if you are in later position and KNOW they are trying to make the money then you should raise with ANY TWO CARDS. They will fold hands as big as AQ or 99 in most cases.
If this is a typical on-line tourney then the bubble usually starts just into the third hour of play, mid-way through the second hour you should be building your stack by stealing liberally, this is very dependant on stack sizes, pevious play of the people behind you and POSITION at the table. Building your stack before the bubble is inportant, just like building it during the final three tables is if you hope to go to the final table with a chance at winning it all.
