Default Just looking for input

1 table qulifier I just got outdrawn and now headed most likrly home. Blinds are 200 400 and I have 650. I feel I will be called by any of the 4 remaining players with any all in. I get 3-8 off in the BB its raised I fold. Next I get 2 7 off its raised I fold thing I have 4 hands to get better. Should I have gone in with 1 of those hands knowing that to the average starting hand I am a 3-1 dog.

a) your 83o is only a 2-1 dog to AK, and the median hand that's raising your blind may not be that good.

c) once the blinds pass you, you only have 50 chips, so you'll have to double-up 4 times to get more chips than you have now.

b) if the raise is from anywhere other than the SB, you're getting 5-1 to call a bet that puts you all-in. If the raise is from the SB, you're getting 4.25-1.

Easy call there with any 2 cards.
