Default Re: Gamble?

I guess thats the part I'm confused about. While I thought there was a reasonable chance I was ahead (stone cold bluff), or flipping with lower pocket pair, I can't be sure of his holding because it is so wide.

From purely a chip EV point of view, am I supposed to instantly run a pokerstove vs. all his possible holdings? And also why am I necessarily risk adverse at this stage in the tourney? I have been accumulating chips, which is good, but I am still in 10th place which is only 3x buyin payout, and I want first which is a 40x buyin payout.
