That's totally dependent on the tournament structure and your intentions, IMO.

Will you be happy with 9th, or do you want to play for 1st?

If you just want money, fold. If you want to gamb00l for substantial money, push.

I push unless there are like 4 shorter stacks

I would've been happier with a 50% chance of entering the final table with a medium stack than a 90% with breadcrumbs, so i shoved and the big stack who had my number in all our tangles calls and shows me AQ.

O well. Another bubble bust. this is the life we have chosen.

It was the right decision. That's all that matters for a poker player.
