Default $4/180 77 - M=11,5 after raise and call

THis is prolly pretty basic, but I'm a cashgame player trying to add some MTTs to my schedule so I'm not that schooled with low stack situation and I want to make sure, I don't fall in the habit of doing some major mistakes.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG (t3448)
UTG+1 (t5393)
MP1 (t3050)
MP2 (t13265)
Hero (t3425)
Button (t8109)
SB (t9150)
BB (t1425)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t600</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t600, Hero ???

I was palying very tight at the beginning starting to loosining up over the last few orbits and stealing a little more blinds. I also made a pot odds call after my steal raise with T9s was pushed over.
But the two villains are in their second hand at the table, so they should have no idea about that.

How good is a push in this spot?

Your stack size is too shallow to play for set-value.

If you had any read, that OR is raising wide, than this is find for a squeeze.

Definitely either shove or fold here..kind of read dependent on OR...don't mind a shove if he's on the looser side..

I don't like a shove here, because it is unlikely to take down the blinds and UTG "should be strong here" or MP2 has the chip to call either way.

If the original raiser is unknown, I would shove TT+, AK here. Maybe 99 depending on my mood. You still have 20BB, enough time to chip up.
