Given stack sizes and blinds do I need to shove here? The bubble is coming up. What is my best play here? I am afraid I am beat and then I am just flipping. It's either all-in or fold here...is this a good place to shove under these conditions (22 players remain, 18 finish in the money). I realize ther are a lot of people behind me left to act.

I fold here, but I'm a nit. If called, you're at best flipping. You probably have a good amount of FE against the initial raiser, but with so many to act behind you, it probably about cancels out. Action also depends somewhat on the buyin. There'll be better spots in the future.

180 person SNG $4.00+$0.40

The initial raiser has the big stack which means he is probably going to call you(at least I would). I would just wait for a better spot here.

I agree...I just desperately need to double up quickly and accumulate. I actually did fold this here but did not get much afterwards in the way of cards.

[hamnegger]

fold bc you have no fe. 44 just isnt stong enough. you have enough chips to wait.

[shaundeeb]

you have soo much FE in a 4/180 ship it in.

If you want to gamble, then jamming is fine. I'd jam 88+, AT+. But that might be too tight of a range. I think 44 is a bit too much. I'm pretty sure villain isn't folding.
