Default Do I have time to wait for a better spot? (FT FTP 12.5k)

Sorry, my comps hand history is messed up but I can guestimate the numbers pretty accurately.

3k/6k blinds antes 750
Me in BB with 35k (29k after posting)
UTG with 90k
Next player with 140k
SB with 55k

Agro UTG raises to 18k
Folds around to me with KJ suited.

Do I have time to wait for a better spot then this?

No. You don't have time. Go all-in. There's only few hands that I can think of that puts you in bad shape: AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AK and AJ. All the other hands you're 2 to 1 underdog or better.

dont get to this situation. now try and win this. id stop n go his a. probably works less than 5-10% of the time but anytime he folds something slightly better is something at least.

Lost a big hand previously, I didnt really have a choice about getting in that situation. I didnt really think of the stop n go line, anyone else like it?
