Probably a nitty response but here goes. These tourneys at these levels are very short and as the avg is often around the 15-20b's on the bubble and 10-15bb's as you approach the FT then its a little different to your usual 20 bigs strategy. You gave a clue in OP as to how comfortable you were at the table and if I remember correctly you had been all in 4 times in the previous two orbits and were finding spots easy enough. Both the guys in your blinds were only calling shoves at the very top of their ranges and you could exploit these easily enough. Plus you have a 3b shove stack should the sb pass through you next hand (i have seen peeps bet/fold out of >10bb stacks in these). The table is tight and you can increase your stack without showdown very quickly by picking the spots which are there. These points would lead me to edge on the side of folding because yeah you obv have to flip well to win tournies but I honestly believe there is more play in these and you are better than 89% of the table  Wink

A lot of rambling which prob does not make sense and that is why i do not post in pha that often. Feel free to slate the above.
