Default 1st 300, 20+2 stats - I\'m a bubble breaker!?

I'm concerned about the large % of 4th place finishes. I've learned to respect the gap and have curbed my calling, but it seems more often then not I'm called when I push w/ 3-4xBB. Often I do push w/ crap in this situation (e.g., 89o K2o), going with position and desperation; that is, I never allow myself to get blinded < 2x. Any thoughts on my bubbleosity are appreciated.

ROI=20%, ITM=38%

1st 13.6%
2nd 14.3%
3rd 10.7%
4th 15.4%
5th 17.5%
6th 12.9%
7th 5.0%
8th 4.3%
9th 3.9%
10th 2.5%

I don't think there's really anything you can say without seeing some specific hands. As far as your ROI, it seems the standard response to point out that any ROI greater than 0 is a good result.

I'll just comment that 3 BB is already at the point where against most players your folding equity is gone, as you are now offering the BB slightly better than 2-1 if you're out of the SB. 20% ROI is quite nice, so I wouldn't be too worried about your play.

That's not too shabby at all. I'm at 0.0% myself over my last 250, so be happy =[

I think you're stats are solid. Perhaps your agressiveness on the bubble is winning you more first and the expense of bubbling out a little bit more.
