At what point should I begin to worry about stealing blinds?
[/ QUOTE ]
Blinds are always worth stealing.

Even in low-buyin Pacific sit-and-gos where anything short of raising half your starting stack is going to get called in the early rounds?

Against opponents who defend the blinds too much, you can do better than stealing the blinds. You should be attacking the blinds by raising for value. When someone makes a bad call, you get more than 100% of the blinds on average. That's better than stealing the blinds, even though you risk losing a big pot early.
It is worth attacking the blinds on the first level. It is worth outplaying the weakest players rather than trying to get those chips after the better players get them.
