Here's something that I have trouble with. In Sit & Go's, when you're in the small blind and your stack is getting smaller, when should you call and fold with marginal hands? For example:
With blinds of $50/$100, you have a stack of about $1,220. You're in the small blind, two players limp, making the pot $350, and it's $50 to you. You have 10

2

. Is this worth a call? Or do you just throw it away? Sometimes I'll call because of the good pot odds, flop a marginal hand and end up getting into trouble and losing a good portion of my stack. I'm leaning towards letting them go because I need to wait for better spots when my chips are getting low and being out of position with a weak hand is a recipe for disaster.
But, what hands do you think warrant calls? Suited connectors? Small pairs?
