Poker problem (OT)

You're at the final table of a 250 player, $500+50 buy-in one day NLH tournament at the Venetian in LV. (This wasn't I but one of my friends, BTW.) Eight players remain with stacks approximately 25%, 25%, 12%, 12%, 9%, 9%, 4%, 4%. (You are one of the 9%.)

Blinds increase every 40 minutes and 25 minutes remain in the current interval.

Assume you don't have a convincing read on anyone. Your M = stack / (sum of blinds and antes) is 5. Two players (one 4%, one 12%) fold in front of you and (3rd to act) you are dealt 44. What's your action? [Note that the size of the pot is 20% of your stack -- you know this already from your M.]

(Sorry, I don't know the payout structure, which could matter, I realize. Just figure they do it similar to other tournaments -- they are paying ~10% of the field and 1st place is $39k. I do know that 8th place pays $2500 [gross]. :)
