Just how much is a "playable" amount of chips. (I think 3XBB is playable

I was just thinking about how stupid this sounded, so let me clarify:

If I have 3 or 4 BB, I certainly have only have 3 plays, all in, fold, check the BB if the pot is unraised. However, late in a tourney, I may go a round and through my blinds without playing a hand because I know when the blinds are that high if I double or tripple up I am not in bad shape. Though I hate paying off half my stack in blinds, I would probably fold the BB with a hand like 25 to an early position raise if it left me with 2+ BB late in a tourney.
