Taking to heart the advice of playing for first, and settling for third, I played this hand the following way. I had pushed twice against this player earlier at stage of the tourney, and both times she folded. I made two other pushes to steal the blinds from the other player, one succeeded, and I had to show a weak K on the other when I got called. Or is all that irrelevant given the blinds, stack levels, and my hand? Here is the hand:

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (3 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Hero (t1322)
Button (t2326)
SB (t4352)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 9/images/graemlins/club.gif.

This hand is a clear allin also and it's not close. Your hand is simply way too strong in a 3 handed game and you are last in chips. Note that if your hand was A2o it would be a very very easy allin also. A9o is milleniums stronger.
