This was the 2nd hand in a $4.50 Sit & Go tournament on pokerstars with 105 players. (9 Handed)

I am wanting to get some opinions on my play here as I am unsure whether it was the correct play regardless of the outcome. I’m unsure whether putting my whole stack at risk at this point of a tournament is profitable in the long run and I would like to hear some opinions for my own learning.

I actually went on to win this tournament for $117 but I am really interested to hear how people see this spot and maybe what ranges people are getting it in with so early on in a tournament.

yes - gambling early is ok if the odds are good - 4b sizing is odd as we are putting in 40% of stack so we are clearly pot committed so we might as well jam - certainly folding to the jam is not an option

close between smaller 4b and 4b jam imo
