Look at the blinds vs stacks. Both opponents should either be folding or shoving. Now, clearly, if the smaller of the two stacks shoves and you're between them, if you're going to play of course you shove over the top, but the truth is, the other one isn't going to come along without a big hand (I think ICM says he should fold everything except AA).

The bottom line is that you are in a situation where the game is all preflop. Even if you were HU at equal stacks, you are push/fold preflop. In fact, at this stage, the only real poker skill is in understanding that bad players fold too many hands when you shove.
