Party turbo 109s, medium stack on the bubble, am I too loose ?
Haven't got hh, from memory :
5-handed, blinds 200 400 utg : t11000 hero, co : t4500 button : t1000 sb : t2000 bb : t1500 utg, folds, hero pushes with 33. I do this all the time, often get loose calls, lose a coinflip and have to push with crap after. Should I keep my rather healthy stack (compared to the shortstacks) and wait for better hands ? I guess this play is better in MTTs. Another one : 4-handed, blinds 200 400 co : t10000 button : t3500 sb : t2000 hero, bb : t4500 All fold to sb who pushes (and would push any 2 here) hero calls with kq. Harrington advocates very tight calling requirements when you're threatened by elimination on the bubble (in sngs), in those two situations, I don't die if I lose but am in very bad shape and will have to push any two due to a v low M. Thoughts ?

The first one, I think you are being a bit too aggressive, given that the shortstack M is less than 2.5. I will fold here, and allow the two shorter stack to duke it out.
EDIT: Didn't notice it was 5-handed. Still I think its borderline to push, but I'm not sure actually. The second one, I would call for sure. Even if you loose, you still don't have to push any two, nesxt hand. You have two shots at getting a hand, before the blind comes, so that improves it a lot IMO, and even then, you can play the hand from the big blind and hope they fold to you (unlikey, I know, but anyway). If you win here, you will have 6500 and be a contender for first.

You might wanna take a step back and re-evaluate your game if you think these are tough decisions. The first one I can't even fathom folding, second one is an instacall unless Villain is reaaaaaaally tight.
