Based on calling range of small sample of the BB, this a fold. But AJo is almost BE.
Well, I don't think I have to consider exactly the stats of the player here.
With no reads, I know, it's very difficult to decide.
If he's calling with nash range, so it's a shove.

My question is if a consider this spot as shove or note, assuming some standard situation (so then I can adjust for game similar situations).

In this situation I also consider that it give me better chances to grow stack and put pressure, also the opponents can call wider next hands.

Hello,

I prefer to raise/fold against BB because I don't think he'll 3-bet all-in too wide here considering this is the bubble and he's probably aware of the shorties.

Of course if we raise here we are raise/calling BTN and SB.

Folding is out of the question and limping is a bad play and open shoving we are risking too much of our tournament equity when there are two other shorties that have a greater than average chance of busting than us.

I like the raise/fold against BB 3-bet all-in and raise/call against either shorties.

If BB is some passive player than I agree. No need to shove r/f is fine. If BB is some aggressive loose player who is going to 3-bet a lot or call shove with wide range I would just fold preflop.
