Default $11: Two 33 bubble hands - Is this why I never finish 1st?

Hi,
These were back to back hands.

Chip leader generally limps pf and very aggressive after seeing the flop.

Hand 1: Villians's raise was out of character. Is this a fold given chip stacks even if villian had only called?

PartyPoker - NL Texas Hold'em $10 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Tournament | Level: 5 - 4 players (Converter: PGC)


Chip Counts:
Button: 2885 Chips
SB: 900 Chips
<font color="red">Hero: 1395 Chips</font>
UTG: 2820 Chips

Hero is BB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Blinds are 75/150

PreFlop
<font color="blue">UTG folds</font>, <font color="red">Button RAISES ($600)</font>
<font color="blue">SB folds</font>, <font color="blue">Hero ????</font>


Hand 2: Is this one of the come-over-the-top shoving situations?

Chip Counts:
Button: 825 Chips

BB: 2820 Chips
UTG: 3110 Chips

Hero is SB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Blinds are 75/150

PreFlop
<font color="green">UTG Calls</font>, <font color="blue">Button folds</font>
<font color="blue">Hero ???</font>, <font color="green">BB checks</font>

I ended up folding both hands pf. Maybe this is one of the many reasons I never get a 1st place finish (over a meaningless sample size [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] )

Were these two hands standard?

Thanks.
