yes i definitely cbet flop. but i think a smaller cbet will do just as well and save you valuable chips on the bubble. i think 750 or 700 cbet is fine.

check/fold turn. you are wasting 400 very very valuable chips when you are obviously crushed very often.

low blind bubble play sucks for this reason :(

This. Basically it's a spot where he's calling the same amount regardless of what you bet (unless it's ridiculously small)
