Default Party 30+3... SB very late in tourney

I have not played many of these MTTs and this is the first time that I have made it this far. Anyways, hero is SB with ~ 50k in chips with 14 players left of 1200 person tourney. Blinds are 4k/8k.

All fold to Button, who is pretty aggressive. Button open pushes for 49k. Hero holds 66. Hero?

Thanks for your thoughts.

I think you can make a case either way... you're in the SB theres no ante's, so if you fold you put yourself into a good situation to steal this upcoming orbit...

but he's pushing with nearly any two, and your M is only 4...

I think it depends how aggressive your table has been... if it's been pretty tight/passive then i'd fold and push any two if folded to me the next few hands.

but if not many hands are getting folded to LP then call.

I busted out too many times at second-to-last tables with marginal hands that I thought were coinflips but turned out to be highly dominated. Fold. This is where you would push with your 66 if it were folded around to you with your stack size, but I wouldn't call with them since for the next seven hands the blinds will be there to steal. The number of times they will flip over a legitimate hand outweighs the chance that you might be slightly ahead. Oh, and there's still one more to act behind you.

The stack sizes are mostly ~40 to ~70k, with one big stack at ~140k and 1 small stack ~ 5k.
