Default Please Help with Near-Bubble Play

This is a $120 Satellite into a $240 NFL Alumni Charity event at the Hard Rock Casino. The last 10 players are all paid ($2380-$163) and each receives a $240 ticket into the main event. I'm at T21,000 and there are 12 players left, 6 at each table. Blinds are 600/1200 and move up every 15 minutes.

An early position player moves all-in for his last T4200, now this is only a 4xbb raise and his range of hands he'd push with in this position is quite large considering he's about to be blinded out and bust on the bubble, just outside the money. It's folded to me on the Button and I look down at AhKh.

I could simply fold here looking for a better spot to work my chips, a weak-tight pussy play in my mind or I play it for what it's worth! Take the chance to knock out a player and accumulate T6,000.

What's your line here?

Call? How is this even close?

I'd actually push. But folding isn't even reasonably close to an option.

Since this isn't really a true satellite, this is an easy push. If it were a satellite where all 10 places paid the same, depending on the other stack sizes, I may fold.

I know this is most likely not an interesting hand at all, and basic at the lowest level for most but I've started to get into these short handed situations more and more as I'm making final tables and I want to check that I'm doing the right thing to put me deep into the money [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I appreciate the feedback!
