Default World Series Qualifier, short stacked with T8s

The blinds are 400 800. I have t2800 after posting the small blind. The top 4 get seats, and places 5-7 get around $4000, $2600, and $1800 respectively. I've been stealing to stay alive, but haven't had a real hand in a while. Most of my steals have been successful, and the table has been playing very tight. Everyone folds to me in the small blind, I have T8s. As of right now there is t1200 in the pot, I have t2800 left. The BB is somewhat shortstacked with about t7000. I thought about this for a little while, and here was my thought process.
The arguements for pushing are that I'm shortstacked, and the rest of the table has folded, meaning I only need one more person to fold to take down the blinds. I might not get another opportunity like this. I also have a reasonable, but not great hand.
Obviously the arguement for folding is compelling as well. I have now posted both blinds so get another complete revolution to get a hand. My worry here is I'll get something marginal, and with just a short stack will have to show the winner.
I pushed. What do you think?
