Just wondering what the general feeling is about soft play.

I have just experienced quite a tense bubble in a $5 9player sng. One stack managed to get well ahead and was raising us 3 short stacks all-in with each hand. With only about 3bb left no-one was calling and big stack got huge. Eventually it comes around to one player being all-in with 330 chips and big stack in the small blind of 250. Instead of putting in the rest, he folded and gave the small stack the hand.

I survived the bubble and so did the player just given the free ride. There were about 2 more orbits until the other small stack lost out.

I can understand the mentality of a player who feels important and can dictate who gets the chips as I've seen it before but what is the general consensus on this? I can't imagine it happening in a live game and I felt a bit sick for the person who lost. Incidentally, the two players were from different countries and I don't believe there was any previous collusion as big stack was shoving everyone, it was just that hand.
