Default Ultimate Bet 200K, Final Table...

9 players remain. 9th pays $3500, 8th pays $5000, 7th pays $7000, first pays $47,000.

I am the short stack at 98,000. Leader is at 600,000 and second short stack is 134,000. The rest are 160,000 to 330,000.

Blinds are 10,000/20,000 with 1000 ante so the starting pot is 39,000. Folds to me in CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Is there any doubt about what to do? Do reads or stack sizes of the three players left in the hand matter? Does the location of second short stack matter?

Nothing matters in this spot but your M, which is like 2.7, making your hand the Noodley McBooders in this spot. I wouldn't exactly fistpump here, but I would definitely say "chuss".

Thanks for the replies, this was close to a BBV post. I shoved of course and button called with JJ and SB shoved with QQ. I almost pulled it out when three hearts hit the flop but one of those hearts was a J and none came on the turn or river. Button took us both out so I guess luck comes into play even in a big MTT at the final table. That was a multi-thousand dollar J on the flop for button.

FWIW, I had over 200K in the second to final table and took on two shorter stacks in consecutive hands as 75% and 80% favourites and lost both showdowns (one of them was final table button as well, grrr).
