Default $16:Stealing Situations with blinds high

I picked out some spots of my last tournaments were i wasnt sure at:

Hand 1:

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1950)
UTG+1 (t4410)
CO (t1338)
Hero (t2870)
SB (t1487)
BB (t1445)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t2870 (All-in)</font>

Pushing in these spot assuming the blinds are not to loose is standard right?
Which hands do u need to push?

Hand 2:

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t3974)
Button (t4909)
SB (t1676)
Hero (t2941)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t1651 (All-in)</font>, <font color="gray">

Call or fold?

Hand 3:

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t3884)
Button (t4277)
Hero (t2516)
BB (t2823)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t800</font>

Button is pretty aggresive,first mini raise though.Push or fold?

Hand 4:
PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t4952)
Hero (t2991)
SB (t1424)
BB (t4133)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Presence of the small stack makes that an easy laydown right?


THx for answering

#1 is pretty marginal, but not bad with tight blinds.

#2 I call if Villian seems to have any conception of pushbotting.

#3 is a push. Misread it the first time.

#4 is a push I think.. BB isn't going to call light.

1st hand - i like my stack size at this point not to push this. you are in second place w a nice stack, i need an actual hand to put my chips in here.

2nd - i call.

3rd - i push

4th - read dependent on BB, but a fold most of the time

#1: this ainīt the bubble. fold.
#2: is read dependent. call if villain has shown any signs of decency
#3: aggressive villain is likely to call and you really do not want that. fold.
#4: I push this if BBs calling range is reasonable

1 = fold

2 = I like a push...a lot.

3 = fold...unless Villian is a tard then I like a push.

4 = because of stack sizes I fell a fold is best...if SB had a bit more of a stack and if both blinds are i little bit tight I like a push.
