Default Small-medium pockets in early pos with many players left.

I've just started playing 22s on party and having trouble deciding what to do in this scenario.

Its 50/100 blinds. Several players left (6-8) and you have about 800 chips. UTG or UTG+1 you pick up a small pocket. Push or fold here? If the blinds are 25/50 - clear fold?

Any input appreciated

I think calling here is REALLY bad, that's 1/8th of your stack.

If blinds are going up in the next 1 or 2 hands, I'd say push.

Otherwise I might muck.

Muck or push here, I don't think calling is an option.

I cant see the call here either. Perhaps calling could be ok in the 25/50 but then what if raised? Fold?
