final table bubble trying to pick up chips, good push or no?
 
$5 mtt on stars, 11 people left, I'm sitting in 6th. I was just moved to this table and had folded about 5 hands until this hand came up. Is it a good play, or do I not need to force it? thoughts?
thanks

I push with A7o from the BB in this situation bubble or no, unless there is a strong likelyhood SB is trapping.

When the SB completes, I frequently raise from the BB with or without a hand.

If it was passed to me the the SB, I would open push in this situation with A7o.

You are better than the range of hands most SBs will play here. So I think it looks good.

i'd definitely raise. the only question is how much. i don't think you're folding out anything that beats you if you push now. but you don't really want to induce a limp-steal from a hand like J9, as you're barely ahead and there's a ton of money in the middle. so i'd push.
