WSOP Sat., QQ bubble question.

[VarlosZ]

Last Sunday's Pokerstars $650 WSOP satellite. 35 players get seats, 37 players are remaining. Blinds 1K/2K (about to go up to 1.5K/3K), I've got 17.7K remaining. There are 5 players with smaller stacks than me, but none are lower than 9K, and four have 12.5K+. Everyone is playing super-tight, of course, and maybe two people have busted out in the last half-hour.

I'm in 3rd position w/ QQ. The player on my right is the chip leader by far with about 180K. For the last couple of orbits he's been open-pushing about every other hand, and he does it again this time. If I call and win, I can (almost) definitely fold my way to a seat. If I fold, I'll probably have to steal the blinds at least once more.

Call or fold?
