Default Short stacked - when to push

I'm down to about 3 BBs, 4 handed (bubble). The other 3 players have similar stacks(at least 30BB). I figure I have to pick hand and go for it before I get blinded to death. What would be a minimum hand to push in this situation.

It depends slightly on your position. On the Button, any pair, Axs, Kxs, Qxs,Jxs, T6s+, 95s+, 85s+, 74s+, 64s+, 54s, Axo, Kxo, Q7o+, J8o+. UTG I would probably add any two suited cards, and any Q or J. BB or SB any 2.

A lot of people tend to wait as long as possible (until they are UTG) to make their desperation push, but I disagree. First chance you get with any hand that has any hope in good position just push it.
