proper bubble play with person sitting out?

[sanmarcosrun1]

Stack sizes starting bubble: (blinds 80/160)
Me in Cutoff: 2360
button: 505
SB: 2960
BB:7675

Button is sitting out and does so for the rest of tourney. I was curious as to proper bubble play when this occurs. I am obviously not throwing away big hands pf but basically it was open season on my blinds for whole bubble due to sitter being to my left. The other thing is the bigger stacks were also attacking each other constantly through bubble as well. I have more than 10BB (as AMT pointed out to me earlier during earlier discussing) so no need to rush but should my range be tighter due to this? This is overall question as well as to what to do with sitters as I am seeing this more often at 11s.

Your range should be tigher than you can imagine. Literally, Folding QQ, AK, and possible even KK (but probably not)

So tight that folding brings tears to your eyes... say in 2 circuits time the guy sitting out has <1BB left and is BB next - big stack pushes your blind and you have AA... would you risk it???? KK in the same scenario?? AK soooted?

Can see arguments for 'going for 1st' here but personally i would fold and get 3rd $ locked up beforehand... hey, but maybe i'm weak!!

AA: In a heart beat
KK: In practice? In two heart beats. In a strictly hypothetical world? ICM may say fold.
AKs: Insta-muck.

as much as i love to say ship it?! ship it!? SHIP IT HOLLA i'd fold everything but AA and KK and QQ. yeah i'd push QQ cause im a maniac. I know it may be wrong and I'm alone, but I know in this situation, I'd push QQ.

If the other players are aggressive fold everything despite KK and AA if your UTG and have to push into the bigstack because he spitecalls you with a lot of hands. Push AK and pairs 99 up into the other middlestack. Let them bust and wait the couple of hands till shorty is busto.
