PP $11: 5 players, 100/200, folded SB, push?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) converter

UTG (t960)
MP (t730)
Button (t1400)
Hero (t2180)
BB (t2730)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

3 folds, hero ???

I had pushed into BB two out of the last three times we were in this situation. Should I avoid doing this altogether when I am covered here?

I don't yet have EB's SNG tool, anyone who does and wouldn't mind please let me know what it says.

Thanks guys.

You don't have to avoid it just because he has you covered.

A5 is too strong to fold, but you don't have to push. I think you can raise to 500 unless you have seen big stack come over the top. If BB has been real aggressive (not necessarily a loose caller), I think pushing is good.

I push a WIDE rande of hands here, and any ace is deffinatly in that range.
