Default 89s, getting low, push or wait?

Empire 25+2.
I just started playing MTTs and have been having success getting into the money (6 of 8 so far with 1 bust 2 positions out of the money). However I'm having trouble getting to the final table.

At this point, we are down to 19 of 220. 11-20 all pay the same, so I'm thinking that I need to gamble.

Is this a good push with less than 6x the BB? Or would you wait and hope? What hands should I be looking to push in this spot?
