$200+$15 NL SNG - down to 4 with the blinds at 250/500 - i have T1600 - 2 stacks of about T4000 - the SB has T420 left after posting the blind of T250

UTG i get AKo - push or fold ?

Push.

There is a case for a mini-raise here, no I haven't gone mad, hear me out.

If you raise all-in, the SB will likely fold on the assumption that he has a chance of you going out first.

However if you mini raise (And im not laying down to a stop go), he will probably feel the urge to get involved through fear of you taking down the blinds. If he plays, then it is very difficult for you to finish fourth.

I'm sure this is not to everyone's taste, but just another option to consider.

I don't think pushing is wrong at all, just presented the other option for discussion.
