PokerStars, $0.44 + $0.06 - Hold'em No Limit - 200/400 (25 ante) - 4 players
Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

ikonick (UTG): 2,772 (7 bb)
Maxi93s (BU): 4,359 (11 bb)
bike_jogador (SB): 3,028 (8 bb)
Pokeregrine (BB): 3,341 (8 bb)

Pre-Flop: (700) Hero (Maxi93s) is BTN with 4 6
1 fold, Maxi93s (BU) folds, 1 fold, Pokeregrine mashes the A button

I fold looking for preserve my good stack and hoping in a collision between SB VS BB. Should i take advantaje of my stack and the tightness of bubble factor of my opponents and push with any non-trash hand to increase even more my stack ?

Maxi93s (BB): 4,309 (11 bb)

Pre-Flop: (700) Hero (Maxi93s) is BB with A 9
1 fold, Pokeregrine (BU) raises to 2,016 (all-in), 1 fold, Maxi93s (BB) folds

i fold because i put BU in a tight range since there is another player very short, probably i would call with ATo+ . is it my fold too tight ?

Against tight blinds a min raise/fold strategy could work with in mind both villains are mid stacks. Otherwise I would fold as well. ICM is a decent factor here.

Fold seems fine. It's villain depended if I would call here. Villain should be careful to shove against the 2 big stacks.
