can someone help me with this?

5 people left in a 10+1 party SNG

stacks:
me: 2550
short stack 316
other stacks: all about ~1700

i'm in the BB for 200
short stack in the SB for 100

folded to the ss who pushes for 216 more

i have 5c2h for 116 more.

so it's 116 more to win 515 which is 4.46:1
my odds of winning against a reasonable range of hands including any pairs, aces, and kings is around 38% or 2.6:1 so i've got the odds but with 3 other stacks so close to mine, is it worth conserving the remaining 116?

help!

and btw if any of the above is wrong please tell me - as the title states my math sucks

Easy call according to your calculation. In general if someone push and has only 2bb, call any two.

thanks - and i know you're good at math /images/graemlins/grin.gif

i guess from an equity stand point are the 116 extra chips in my stack by not calling worth more than a 1 in 4 chance to win more?

i guess i need an ICM calc...
