The following situations come up often during STT's when you are either card dead or have suffered a loss.

You are the shortstack and are UTG with the blinds making up a significant amount of your stack. What do you consider in these particular situations? What if I added a player or two, how does that effect your decision? ATC push?

It is my understanding that taking a -EV push in these situations may very well be the best play because it will be less -EV than future situations.
