Default Push with 55 in this situation

This is a PP $215
I am shortstacked with 330 chips and the blinds are 25/50. I am one off the cutoff. A player with a large stack makes a 3x bet from MP. I have 55. I put him on two big cards (he ended up having KQ), giving me a coinflip. There are 9 players still in and I have the fewest chips by quite a bit. The next lowest is roughly 800. So do I fold, call with intention of pushing, or push?

I fold this, with 9 players still in i think you can get a better spot. You can never rule out him having a higher pair. It would be much preferrable pushing into limpers than into a raise, because now you have very little FE.
