Seat 10: (2005)
Seat 5: posts small blind (50)

Hero ???

First in is good. No FE is not good. If I pass here, no guarantee I will see a better hand before the BB gets to me with t525 6 hands later. Fold and hope, or push and pray?

This is a pretty clear fold for me. There is no way that all four have such a tight calling range (66+,AT+ for all players give neutral EV).

If BB increases next hand, I might talk myself into pushing though.

Am I misreading this? You have the shortest stack, but you'll have 5xBB after the blinds hit you. That's plenty of FE. I'd rather push any two in the SB or button than this UTG.
