Of course I pushed. And yes, I am aware that it is an easy push. But at what point is the short stack so tiny that you fold and wait for him to bust, rather than push an unmade hand, even AQ or AK?

[pergesu]

This is so read dependent, but considering he's so small they're going to try to just let him bust. The shorter his stack, the more willing they are to get out of the way of your push. He'd have to have like half a BB for me not to push. Maybe even less.

I call.

I don't think you really want the baby stack to get busted that quickly. Having a baby on the table is a great time to pick up extra chips. Most players tend to tighten up and wait for the bubble to bust, this is a great time for you to greatly increase your stack.

Right now if he doubles up he is almost even chipped with you. By passing up this +ev chance of busting him, or stealing the blinds you are letting him potewtially double up against the big blind who will call his push with any two.

It depends heavily on what I think the other guys will call with. It wouldn't really if I had everyone covered.
