Am I way too agressive on the bubble, or would others do the same?

I would push here. I think it might be close enough to be controversial though.

You are pushing into big stack. You will have about as much FE on the next hand on the 2nd big stack. Short stack is coming into the blinds.

I still push. I just want someone to say fold.

I think it's very easy.

Hmmm...I think it's close, but I push. As a rule of thumb, if small stack can double and put me in jeopardy, I'll make a push like this.

Brainless push. It's probably closer than I'm making it sound, but I don't want to give anyone any excuse to fold here, because it will cost you a lot of money in similar situations in the future.

It's a push but I would have been going in before now, unless the blinds have just gone up, as I prefer to do so with 5bb than 4.

You don't know anything about what happened the previous hands, so I have no idea how you can claim that you'd have been "going in before now".

One of my biggest pet peeves on this forum is anyone saying they'd do something differently in previous hands without having the slightest clue what transpired.

Obviously, I meant if at all possible. But it's pretty rare when it's not.

I can think of a million things that could have happened to make pushing incorrect in the previous 5-10 hands. When there is a stack so short as the 700 stack and two bigger stacks who can call without a huge penalty, it sometimes pays to steal less than usual, thus I see no possible way to simply assume there was likely a good stealing situation in the past few hands.

Sometimes I steal a lot, and sometimes the game conditions require you not to steal so much. I'm sorry to take it out on you, but so often when someone posts a hand when they don't have so many chips, some poster blames it on their previous play.

You don't know how often I will have 1200 chips (or less) with 150-300 blinds. To infer that I should have done something differently because you see me in that situation, will almost surely be absurd.
