Default FTP 24+2: short stack shove with 75o?

Thru a mix of misfortune and stupidity I have found myself super short. I have been folding for 2+ orbits. Is this OK or should I be waiting?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $40/$80
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $2410
UTG+1: $3460
MP1: $3407
MP2: $5640
Hero: $775
CO: $4110
Button: $5683
SB: $2975
BB: $4715

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP3 with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in $775

wait...this is terrible (sorry but true)...big stacks behind and ahead and great odds to call you...no showdown value and a good chance to get called in one or more spots...you will get a much better spot before you need to stress

why did you wait so long to shove that hand? unless you had read that limpers were limp folders, this is really bad.

Tomek,

[censored] all these 2+2ers and their math and their logic and their pushbot charts and their [censored] EV and profits and [censored], I love the play. I hate being short stacked too.

PS: Terrible and unprofitable. Even if you are up against a loose and crazy table that opens a lot, you can find a better spot at 40/80.
