Default Re: a 50+5 MTT final table hand (like to get STTF opinions)

You're right that this is an easy STT push, as your cards are likely to run well hot and cold here.

But you're not looking at this from the right perspective. usually in an STT, if you've got ~9BBs, then you need to be aggressive. But in this instance, of the 9 remaining players, 4 are still below you in terms of chip stack size, and 1 is pretty much your equal. So, essentially, you're about the 4th largest stack. Thinking in these terms, would this change your decision?

BTW, not much equity transfer is lost by giving your SB to the bigstack here. And except for Seat 4, this would not be true against any of the other stacks.
