I fold. You have a healthy stack and u have to push through 4 ppl, including chip leader. (i don't have sng pt, so just going by feel).

Maybe 1010+ I push?

Seems very tight to fold here. Theres only 4 people behind me if I fold 77 am I folding every thing other than jj-aa and aq/ak.

My stack isnt that healthy either its only slightly over 10bb. I need to accumulate at some point.

Anyone else disagree with me?

You've got a medium pair with an M of 7. Have you read Harrington on Hold'em II? It's good.
A push here could only legitemately be a steal. You aren't really looking to be called, since you'll basically either be dominated or coin-flipping. You've got to let it go, and save your chips for a better hand, or for more fold equity when blinds move up again.

You do realize that most of sng's is pushing for pure steals, right? I could go either way depending on reads. Also from what I understand harringtons "M" isnt really great when applied to sng's.

Well, if he's going to steal, it doesn't really matter what he's got. That's what I meant from what I said before. Harrington's M works okay for me, but maybe I play SnG's with a different structure than the one you're thinking of.
