One more hand from my $25 live tourney

[wackybrak]

Once again, 10 players left, blinds 1k-2k, Would venture a guess at chip average equaling around ~22k.

I currently have about 21k. 6 players at my table.

Stack sizes in front of me (or behind, the ones who act AFTER me) are about 50k, 20k, 7k, 14k.

Dealt A8o UTG+1 six handed. UTG folds, hero...?

I fold. Dangerous mix of short and big stacks behind you.

Fold. Get "SnG Powertools". You should shove something like 55+/AT+/KQ.

Fold, I push that with a < 15K stack

Well I do have SNGPT, though i don't use it too much. I'm assuming now that this move is -EV, but I had more questions about my chip position relative to the tourney.

The blinds are coming, and I will be less than 10bb after the orbit. I figured an Ace was PROBABLY the best hand preflop six-handed, and I knew a 3xBB raise was out of the question as I would be forced to call a reraise.

Also, does the fact that the shortstacks are calling only with 77+, KJ+, A7+ make this move more or less ev?
