bubble time of mtt- play ok?

its been over 2 year since i last dabbled in tourneys but over the last 2 days ive entered a few just for a change, 8 to be exact, ive cashed in 2 and bubbled 2.

this hand im a bit curious off, im looking for your views on wether my actions are correct in the hand.

were down to 9 with 8 payed, ive got kinda unlucky that im on the table thats 4 handed and contains the chip leader who just so happens to be to my left. i have 13bb which is roughly the same as 2 other stacks who were hovering around at the bubble in danger but on the other table.

the result doesnt matter to me but is me shoving the sb with 13 bigs the correct play. i figure i cant dwindle too many chips away on the bubble paying the blinds, esp as they are hitting me quicker than the other table, and i only have 1 opponent to get thru even if it is the chip leader. do you do the same here?

    Surely it "hand for hand" and the blinds will be the same?  I'm folding 44 here. You've got another orbit....ladder FTW.

    yes it is hand for hand but on a 4 handed table you pay blinds more often than the 5 handed table as the orbit of the table is quicker in the number of hands played

    I don't see what else can we do here? 

    It's standard imo, I certainly wouldn't even think twice about shoving this spot from the small blind, the button, and probably the cut off too. 

    The only way a different line can be justified is if the min cash means alot to your bankroll etc. I doubt that's the case, so just shove. It's unexploitable.

    Any other seat I prob fold on bubble.

    But from the SB in unentered pot its pretty much always a shove.
