PROFESSIONAL BUBBLER!!!

[UCDAGGS]

As of late in all aspects of tournament including SNG's, I have taken on the occupation of the professional bubbler. Recalling previous hand histories, I seem to get stuck in spots in the 400/800 - 600/1200 that I seem to make the wrong decisions. I feel that at that point hands like ak,aq,aj,10,99,88 etc are all raising hands or worth a push when the blinds are high enough but I feel that when a raise is in front of me I go into -ev mode and call hands like 10s for most if not all of my chips, leaving me frustrated and down my tournament buyin when if i could have managed a double up or picked a better spot to get my chips in the pot; I could have had a great to chance to have my seat at the final table. .Also my other inquiry is in regards to the point when in position, it is mathematically correct to push with any two cards, when and at what point does this become effective.


Sample Hand,

800/1600 180per. SNG. 33 ppl left.
30k in chips 3rd in chips. everyone folds around to the button he pushes with 16k huge over bet. I have ak. I call he catches a pair he doubles up.WOULD YOU ALL CALL. and then with the same blinds push with 10s with an avg stack heading into the money. I got knocked out a few hands later with 1010 23rd place with 18 place in the money. Would be grateful to hear thoughts on bubble play and stack preservation. TCG. SORRY FOR THE POLL I CANT FIGURE OUT HOW TO CHANGE THE QUESTIONS TO SIMPLY
