Default PP with Short Stack

$6 NL Hold'em Bounty:

Blinds are currently 400/800/50 due to move up to 600/1200/50 in <1 minute

Stacks
<font color="red">Hero</font>: T7375
CO: T8297
SB: T6970
BB: T52464
UTG: T8352
UTG+1: T16450

Pre-Flop: Hero is in MP with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 players)
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, <font color="red">Hero...</font>

What would you do here? Keep in mind that we are already &lt;10BB and a raise in blinds is coming up in &lt;1 minute which would put us at ~6BB. Also we are already in the money, but if we bust out here it is only about a 7% profit.

I want to push. My position isn't great, but at the very least I need the blinds/ante. In my mind pushing is the standard play. Is that correct?

Standard push. Anything besides a push here is bad.

Yes, I would push. You are too short-stacked not to.
