Default $27 ATs UTG

OK, I ran this through SnG Power Tools and shoving seems ok but to be honest I'm not quite sure it is. What's your play?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t1905)
UTG+1 (t2220)
CO (t2853)
Button (t3345)
SB (t1560)
BB (t1617)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Mini raise! It makes your hand look like aces!

Or just fold...

Oh, the mini raise post was just a joke. I'm folding this, pushing AJ?

I would normally fold but the reason why this looks good in SNGPT is the stacks which you have covered are in the blinds. Widen the range of one of the big stack and I think this may go -$EV or at least become marginal.

Just so you know when I ran the numbers the first time, I did it w/ an ante of 25. Without the ante pushing is pretty thin. For whatever reason I assumed there was an ante, looking back at the HH there isn't.

AJ is pretty thin as well (without an ante)

with less chips I would shove, but you have a nice stack and it is 6 handed. Honestly I think I would bet 500 and hope to take the pot down, reevaluate any action after me. I think if anyone shoves behind me I probably fold. This might be a leak...

I put UTG-Button at 66+, AJo+ which seems reasonable and I loosened up the blinds to KTs+, 22+. Doing this makes it an EV+ push but just barely.
