Part of the time you'll be a 3:2 favorite, more often you'll be on the weak side of a coin flip. Not terrible, but still a real risk of an early exit. What you have to ask yourself is if you need this pot, and push only if the answer is yes.

I shove but a more cautious person may want to wait to be first in the pot. If you wait, the blinds will take a good chunk of your stack and you may not get a pair of cards as good as this again.

Meh. It looks like a push I am neither over-enthusiastic about nor hating.

I would shove here.
You have better FE against the 2 bigger stacks behind here then you will get later when if you have to open push into them.
