$2 NL HE STT Turbo: Bubble Play: 76o in cutoff w/ 3BBs

EDIT: Wrong title, I have 5 BBs, not 3 and I'm in the BTN not the CO. Got this confused w/ another hand lol

I plugged this into PokerTracker and it said shoving and folding were equal...wanted to see what board members thought though. SB had been playing real tight. I had no seen BB make any loose plays really, but he was 25/17 and big stacks are always more likely to call. Still, the damn player to my right had been shoving on the button often, keeping me from being able to steal from the tight player to my left in a SB/BB matchup. So, I took this opportunity to try to accumulate chips because I figured

A) Most likely I'll be a 40% dog if he calls
B) I have 5 BBs, enough to still have some fold equity
C) SB is playing really tight, and BB is not overly loose
D) I'm the major shortstack here and gotta make a move

Thoughts?

Yeah, you're severely shortstacked so I have no problem with the shove here. It's basically a shove or fold decision. Some would shove, others would fold.

I'd shove here, I'm a little concerned about the BB, but at least here we're rarely dominated, so I like this hand to push. If we're deeper we can fold, if we're more shallow our decision becomes easier.
