Default Standard bubble pushes, right?

Party $11 SNG. No reads, was watching tv.

Hand one: blinds going up next hand taking up 30% of my stack.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) http://216.119.70.224/converter/hhconverter.pl

BB (t1835)
Hero (t770)
MP (t240)
CO (t2080)
Button (t2085)
SB (t990)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">Hero pushes</font>.

Hand two: standard button push?
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (5 handed) http://216.119.70.224/converter/hhconverter.pl

MP (t1660)
Hero (t935)
SB (t2155)
BB (t2310)
UTG (t940)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero pushes.

The second one is absolutely standard.

The first one I'd probably push, but not terribly happily, and I'm not actually sure it's anywhere near correct -- I might fold and hope for a decent hand in the BB next hand.

Hand 1) I would fold. I may have pushed when it moved to 100/200, but I'm not as quick to jump in with the 75/150 level. You will still have reasonable FE if you have to fold both blinds.

2) This one seems fine if the blinds aren't too loose.

Honestly I think pushing the first one is flat out terrible.

Hand 1 is a clear fold. Hand 2 I probably push, but I wouldn't be surprised if ICM says to fold.

If we change 2 factors... You are now at 550 chips and Blinds are 75/150. Is it still some marginal push here ?
