I think this would be an interesting post for a general SNG. IMO, there's only one reason to consider folding. Survival Equity (Irie term). If you didn't have the top stack and playing 2nd stack, this would be an autocall for me.

If the blinds were higher, this would be a call. If you were 3rd or 4th stack, this would be a call. If you had 2nd stack covered by 600 chips, this would be a call.


But this is a unique circumstance. If the table is tight enough, that your stack carries enough weight to continue stealing, folding here is fine. I don't have an answer for you, as I am not sitting at the table, nor know more about your game. But I can recommend that folding (playing weak/tight) here is not a bad move.

As usual, flame away.
