Default A Conundrum Faced on the Bubble

I faced this tough bubble situation on Party's 20+2 today. Sorry for the lack of the hand history. (Im reconstructing this from memory.)

Party 20+2 SNG. Blinds 100/200. 4 handed.

UTG (~700)
Button (~1500)
SB (~5200)
Hero (~600)

Hero is dealt T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in the BB.

UTG goes all in. Button folds. SB calls. Hero?

Obviously the problem is that Im in 4th chip position. Any overcard hitting from either UTG or SB would knock me out. However, if I fold, I would be left with only 400 chips, almost a guarantee to get knocked out of the tourny in 4th place. Winning would have me knock out UTG, but only give me 1800 chips to work with, which doesnt increase my chances for second/first dramatically.

Reads: I was 90 percent certain that UTG had two overcards to my T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]and Button had a weak Ace high, as he was playing that loose. Knowing that, would you still call? Or would you knowingly fold the best hand preflop?

Results to follow.
