Default $6 , 5 handed and SS - push or call? and sngpt question.

new to the SNG game (played less than 30 of these) and i'm guessing it would have ben better to take my chances here given my situation. But i really don't know. whaddya think?
is this where that sng power tools would help me? is it used in real-time or after the tourney to detect problems?

It is an easy push.

You HAVE to push this hand here IMO. After the next round you'll be down to 380 chips and getting to the stage where you need not just one but two quick double ups just to survive. Stick all those chips in the middle as quickly as possible!

IMO, you have only one move at this point. When you are dealt two high cards, in your chip position, the best play you have is to push all your chips to the middle. At the very worst, you lose the hand. Big deal, your chip stack isn't very frightening to anyone at this table and blind level. The scariest scenario is if you're dominated by a large pair, where you're a 30%, ore or less, dog, unless you're facing aces. Against a lower pair its a coin flip. And, don't forget, your all in move may get everyone to fold, where you pick up both blinds, and the limp in.
