CO Stats
67 hands: 21/19 (PFR 43% from CO, 38% BTN), 3B 7.7, Fold to 3bet 100% (2 for 2)
Has been quite active

SB Stats
82 hands: 27/11, 3B 9.5%, Fold to 3 bet (no examples), Cold Call 21%
Has been open raising x5 a few times but no showdown

Hero Stats
I don’t have exact stats (HM is cumulative) but at time I was running about 15/13, 3B 5-6% (is this tight?). I have been running about 35-50bb most of the tournament but in last circuit lost a small pot to short stack and blinds went up so that now have 23bb for first time. I have not had a notable pot with these players.

When I look at the players a squeeze seems optimal. The CO is aggressive in late position and folding to 3 bets, the SB leans more towards calling unless he has a hand to overbet. Additionally, the SB has a stack size that should worry the CO if he hasn’t got a premium hand.
On my side I have a decent stack that should make them think, I haven’t played a hand in 15, plus I have the A blocker for what it’s worth (every time I seem to use that logic there’s a better A in opponents hand).

It was 1am (been playing since midday, this tourney nearly 6 hours) and I would guess there is still 2-3 hours before final table so am concerned a little tiredness may have affected my decision one way or the other.

The question I have is do I have time to wait for better spots (10mins blinds, 22BB left after fold) or is this such a prime squeeze opportunity that needs to be taken to push for the win?

Many thanks
