The stacks were right in the original post - I edited to clarify where mine was (4,000 in the pot and 6,500 in front of me)
So ATC and cross fingers?

Come on guys, this should be a discussion on the merits of calling. Doesn"t reflect well on the forum that there is a debate about how many chips we need to put in & how many we will win, which should be second nature (and coming up with so many different answers). If we can"t work that out then how can we make good decisions?
(btw David is correct - 6.5k to win 16.5k)

Yep, ATC for me here - and I wouldn"t look before shoving my chips in.
Obviously it"s a crapshooty structure (crapshooty is a real word BTW), but ideally you wouldn"t let yourself get down to such a small stack compared to the blinds. You really want to be shoving it in with a stack of 10xBB or thereabouts when you can still damage others" stacks and when a double up actually gets you a bit of breathing space. Of course, you have a decent stack and lose a race you can be placed in the position you"re in. But you don"t want to be blinded down to that stack.
