Default 16s: probably easy question

I used to shove this [censored] all day long but now that i actually examine it, it seems like an EZ fold. What say you STTF?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t2155)
Button (t4470)
SB (t2000)
BB (t4875)

Preflop: Hero is in CO with 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

HERO???

Depends on reads. What are they calling with? How's the button been using that 2nd stack? How well has other shorty been playing? how loose is BB?

Its a toss up. I probably push 60-70% and fold 30-40%.

I think a push a resonable, depending on reads. If the other players understand ICM I like a push more. If BB calls us loose so be it, were favorite to double up and have the big stack on the bubble. TBH In game i'd push, just cos we can't let SB steal the blinds and overtake us.

Players at the 16s do not understand ICM. I'm a 16 player that does quite well and don't understand ICM. Either way, I push this all day long. You've got 5 BBs in your stack and those 600 chips would taste like pie if you were to win them. Any ace is a push here IMO.
