Home game SnG hand..

[splashpot]

My friend is ragging on me for folding this small blind. I'll give an overview since it's impossible to give exact chip stacks, etc. My friends are all loose passive. 10 handed, party's payout structure, starting chip size 110(don't ask why, we just had a limited number of chips), SB 1, BB 2. My stack size has barely changed at all.

Hero is SB with Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif6/images/graemlins/club.gif
Preflop: 2 folds, MP1 calls, 5 folds, Hero folds.

My friend argues that I had enough pot equity to call this. I said the pot is so small that it's not worth risking anything. Who is right?

Hold on...you have a stack 55 times the BB?

Fold away and you can wait for a better time to put your chips in. Your friend is wrong. No need to get yourself caught in marginal situations (TPWK, Q-high flush draws, etc). Plus when the blinds go up you can capitalize on your tight table image and steal when you get Q6o in the SB and the blinds are 20/40.
