Default blinds 200/400 push now or wait??

this is just a general situational question that comes up often in party speed sngs at any buy-in. its one that i don't have a set way of playing.

you are UTG with approx 1800 chips, blinds are 200/400. is it better to push any 2 here with some sort of FE still available or let the bb/sb hit you where you will have only 1200 afterwards and pretty much no FE with any push you make thereafter (so you basically have to pick up a hand in the next orbit which may be only 4 or 5 hands).

sometimes i push any 2, sometimes i let the bb hit me (which someone then tries to steal almost 100% of the time and i usually can't call). i think my pushbotting is pretty good apart from this one type of situation. any input appreciated.

I usually let the blinds hit me...I mean I'm not pushing 23o but my range is huge.

I w/ 4 BB UTG I am pushing, A2+,22+,K6+,Q8+,J9+,T9o,67s+

Positively unanswerable without knowing how many hands are on deck, and their stack sizes. One of the tougher spots to nail down pushing ranges no doubt. Post specifec converted hands as you run across them (or pick up SNGPT/Wiz/a couple free ones floating around...and you can run the calc's yourself).
