Default shortstacked (4bb) on the bubble, push Axs?

Was playing with a friend last night and we debated this situation afterwards.

Party NL (22), big blind is 200.

Hero is utg with Axs (actual example was A7s) and 750 chips.
The other 3 players are very even at about 2500 chips.

Push/fold?
Thanks...

Default Re: shortstacked (4bb) on the bubble, push Axs?

I voted any two decent card but to me there are two other factors that will help me make my decision easier. I might fold a marginal push hand like JQ if, for example, these two criterion were met...

1) Two or Three of the remaining players are all maniacs and would like to bust on the bubble with a shorty out there.

2) The 100-200 level just started and I have a couple rounds to hope someone else busts out before me or possily get dealt a really nice hand.

Thanks, I tend to agree with you. Maybe I should specify (for future voters) what i meant with two decent cards, let's say J8o or better (including any A, any K, most Q's).
