    Default Have I made the correct choices? ($21.50)

    I've made it to the bubble and the blinds are very high. Have I made the right choices?

    Further information

    - These are sequential hands.
    - Villain in BB (Player A) in hand 1 was running at 40/23/8.0 over 84 hands. My best guess in first hand is his calling range is somewhere from 25 - 40%.
    - Player B was running at 33/14/3.4 over 218 hands
    - Player C was running at 18/13/2 over 46 hands

    Hand 1

    Grabbed by Holdem Manager
    NL Holdem $400(BB) Replayer
    Hero ($2,095)
    BB Player A ($2,121)
    CO Player B ($3,208)
    BTN Player C ($1,576)

    As you played

    1. fold against loose player and push against tight. So fold against this one
    2. you have got me, probably fold here. If you call here, you dont want to another call from blinds. In this situation there is higher probability that you get call by another one. I prefer to be BB with 1395$ although you have a little bit better hand than average.
    3. easy push

    i think hand 2 made all the difference....

    I shove hand 1 here. We are almost evenly stacked, and I have yet to see someone whose bubble calling range is 40%.

    Hand 2, obv fold.

    I probably shove hand 3, too, but if I won hand 1, equities would be different.

    Are you shoving ATC if he calls every single hand?

    no, but i have no reaon to suspect he does, as i imagine you would have pointed out useful information like that.
