Default Pokerstars $10/15k guaranteed hand

I am sorry I dont know how to use the converter yet.
Blinds are 200/400 with 25 ante. Hero has 6k on SB. Has just been moved to the table so no real read on villain yet.

CO: Villian(4600 in chips) raises to 1600
Button:folds
SB:Hero(6000 in chips): 66
BB: (7400 in chips)

What's the line here? shove, sng or fold?

I fold. No need to flip a coin just yet. We're not deep enough to play NSNB and there aren't too many flops we're gonna be happy with.

SAve yourself some time, push. Your M is under 6, so you dont have much time left, i think this is a good spot to move all in, either take it right then and there, or your most likely gonna be a 55/45.

no sense in blinding out, if your playing to win, id say push

I fold - small stack betting 1/3 of his stack screams he wants action - so my range for him suggests I'm hoping to get lucky with a coinflip for me...

Plus I think I can get my chips in later in a better situation (first to act / better cards / both) with less risk.

I see why you're having trouble in MTTs. You've got zero reads on your opponent. You've got a weak hand OOP. You were not first into the pot (Harrington goes indepth about 'first in vigorish'). An M of 7 does not require you to jam all your chips in, regardless of action.

I'm assuming 9-handed table.

You have a couple of orbits to make your move, so wait a while.

Depending on the table, you should probably be pushing a wide range in the following hands when it's been folded to you in middle or late position.
