I instashove here. It's not like the shorty is going to be out in the next hand. If you're really nitty, you can call and c/r shove a favorable flop.

push looks good.

SB may be pretty short, but QQ is a monster here.

This is wicked easy, you certainly have the stack to threaten BTN, he doesn't want to call and lose. Plenty of FE with a huge hand. You don't always have to be weak/tight on the bubble if you aren't the chip leader!
