OK guys this is kinda a fun one! First off I did end up wining this one = D But after the game I was thinking for quite some time whether I should have tried to steal the pot or not...

So I am mostly looking for some opinions!

My train of thought was... their are only 7 players left which 3 have a shorter stack them me... I can last one more round at least but the other 2 defiantly can't and the third one would be cutting close. So in the end I decided to take the safer route and fold.

No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 200/400 Blinds (7 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

CO (t5740)
Hero (Button) (t1210)
SB (t750)
BB (t1540)
UTG (t2940)
MP1 (t2290)
MP2 (t530)

Hero's M: 2.02

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q♦, 8♥
5 folds, SB bets t550 (All-In), BB calls t350

Flop: (t1500) A♦, 3♦, 7♠ (2 players, 1 all-in)

Turn: (t1500) 5♦ (2 players, 1 all-in)

River: (t1500) A♣ (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: t1500

Yes, this is definitely a steal situation if the BB is tight, even when SB calls you have some chips left.

Hey thanks for the response! So after replaying the hand I saw that the bb was calling 17 of steal attempts... So considering that I believe my fold was correct. =D
