BH nearing the bubble - was my shove ok - should I have expected the call?

out in 23/167
nearing the bubble
13 bigs utg with 77
wanting to find a spot before my fe is gone, and prepared to take a flip to get back in the tournament

called by the sb for his tournament life, nearing the bubble, by KTo

i think it's an ok spot to shove, or do you think 77 is too weak? I certainly don't want to min-raise and fold while just about to go through the blinds.

But the call by the sb, i cannot see that making sense or am I missing something?

    need to win races if you want to win tournaments

    actually think its ok to minraise @ 13bb in a tournament with no antes personally, if you get jammed on by someone playing tightish then you can fold knowing your rarely ahead.

    i would agree if it wasn't a BH. but many villains seem to call light with an inflated view of what a head is worth in BHs, and i don't fancy my post-flop play.

    do you differentiate your play here depending on whether it is a BH?
