$33 Buy-in (800/1,600 blinds, 160 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 8 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: 9,812 (6.1 bb)
BB: 50,928 (31.8 bb)
UTG+2: 16,800 (10.5 bb)
MP1: 5,820 (3.6 bb)
Hero (MP2): 17,340 (10.8 bb)
MP3: 37,899 (23.7 bb)
CO: 8,220 (5.1 bb)
BTN: 53,867 (33.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 7

2 folds, Hero raises to 3,200, MP3 raises to 7,400, 5 folds

question in the title. Everbody seemed pretty nitty first 30 hands so I decided to minraise steal even I have only 11bb left. That fine or do you only play shove or fold already ?

We don't want to be r/f off 10bb, think we need to be in shove fold mode.

Also with 10% antes and 11bb eff I think I fold A7os and A8os is borderline.

I thick the letters in your post.
This is fine. Fold to his 3bet. He has probably better ace.

This play is aggression play and according to your table read is this ok imo

I'd prefer it with a bigger stack, don't think we should have a raise fold range at this point but with this table read I may make this play with 15bb or so, maybe 13bb if I had better position
