Default PS $10+1, deep in the money, 55 on button and semishort push from CO

This hand confused me somewhat, as I didn't feel like one option was much better than the other. It is from a PS $10+1, 10 min levels tourney, 800+ runners, down to 25. No reads on villain, but I just doubled him up two hands ago when he pushed 77 in SB and I called with 79 in BB getting better then 2-1 odds. What's your play here?

This is an easy fold. You're likely a coinflip, though it's possible he could have A2-A5 or 22-44. However, he could also have 66+. You're on the button, and your M is 5 I would think? (I don't know the antes). You're in a pretty desperate here, but I don't think calling this all-in is a great play. You're better off folding here and shoving next hand with any two cards.
