Default Bubble Help: Give me a range of hands you push with here...

Okay, lately due to some serious play adjustments from Level 3 on, my ITM has gone up. But now, I find myself kind of scratching my head at a lot of situations. I know the standard response for how to play 3-handed is: "like a maniac". What is your range of hands for pushing here? Let's assume Button did not raise.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (3 handed) converter

Button (t4240)
Hero (t1850)
BB (t1910)

Preflop: Hero is SB with ??

My range of hands is 23o-AA. I'm pushing with any two.

I figure this will be the answer from most. I guess what I really need to do is analyze how I end up ITM so damned short-stacked, meanwhile I already thought I was being more aggressive on the bubble.

oops small mistake +.5% is if the player is calling very loose.. if he is at all reasonable it is more like +2.3%

The pushometer (eastbay's SnG PowerTools) says to push with any two, umless BB is a maniac.

If he calls with amy two (highly unlikely, IMO), you should push with 33+, A2+, K3o+, K2s+, Q6o+, Q3s+, J8o+, J7s+, T9o, T8s+ (46%)

If he calls with 44+,A7s+,A9o+,KJs+, you should push with any two.
