So the following just happened to me. There are five players remaining in a Stars SNG. The one to my immediate right has been away for the entire SNG, and has just under 2 BB's remaining (big blind is 200) before posting the BB, where he is now. I'm the short stack among the 4 actually present players with 5.5 BB's UTG. The two big stacks each have something like 25 BB's, and a 7 BB stack is in the SB.

What range do you push UTG in this situation? What variables would you take into account that I've passed over?

Other things I would consider\like to know:
Your table image
Your reads
When the blinds go up and how much

Even with a bad table image I'm likely giong in with any two paint, any ace, almost any kings, and pairs. You have a good chance at picking up the blinds and are about to lose a lot of your fold equity.

Bump. I'm curious to see what people think here.
