Default Bubble SB question

Had the same hand twice in almost identical situations tonight. Here's on of them:

Seat 1: reecelights (1580)
Seat 2: Greg939 (557)
Seat 3: anthonyMT (1353)
Seat 4: ajade (1200)
Seat 8: jschaben1 (1370)
Seat 10: vegasguppie (1940)
reecelights posts small blind (100)
Greg939 posts big blind (200)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to reecelights [ Kh, 4d ]

I caught the same hand in the SB in a later tourney with slightly different stacks, although I was still the larger stack.

Thoughts?

I should also state that while I'm usually Tight/Aggressive, I tend to play weak-tight on the bubble, and am looking for ways to improve this part of my game.

Personally I'd usually fold - although depending on BB i might make a small steal bet (eg if I have a note that this yus uses autofold).

If you follow the 10x BB theory that many seem to like here then you only have 2 choices: fold or push. I for one would'dn't want to push and put a healthy stack at some risk with K4. But then I also don't follow the 10x BB to any great degree.

I take it it folds to you preflop and you want to know whether to move in on the BB or not. Yes, push it in given how shortstacked the BB is. Your lower limit to move in here is something like Q8.
