Default Pushing ATC UTG <4 BB\'s

A very common scenario I am having trouble with looks something like this:
Blinds 300/600
Hero 2300
Button 5900
SB 5900
BB 5900
Hero is CO with 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Is there anybody who would not make this extremly -$EV Push? I am interessted if you rather fold and let the blinds hit you and take a gamble where you don't have FE but a better chance for winning because of a better hand.

I am thinking that <font color="red">keeping FE is the most important job</font> while playing a SNG.

How short do you have to be to push UTG with ATC? I guess for me it is 4 BB. That means that whenever you are UTG and have &lt;4 BB's it's an autopush?!?!?

Obviously there are exceptions: When somebody is shorter than you on the bubble or nearly everybody is as short as you!

I would love to hear your opinions.
