Default Blinds stealing late stages of the tournament

You have M of about 4, 50-60 people left and 18 cash.You are at one of the last places.Everybody folds to you and you have XY on the button.

Pretty standart situation.
What is the X and Y have to be for you to shove?

Anything except pure trash. My range may get a little tighter if the table is loose.

Depends on the blind's stack sizes and general behaviour, not to forget my own table image. Oh yes, are there antes?

obv it depends, but if the blinds are relatively weak and i don't appear to be a superdonk i don't mind shoving any suited 2-gapper or small pair. i, usually, won't shove with atc unless one of the two blinds is sitting out or it's close to the bubble and one is pretty short.

Well, i forgot few important things.Regarding table reads - you have just moved to another table an orbit ago, so no special reads.

Blinds got you covered, but your stack is from 30-40% of their stacks, so they can't call you superlight.
