Based on the advice i've gotten here I pushed with 6 9 suited. Got busted by Ax. I think I made the right play. Any corrections or confirmations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I think pushing into two big stacks needs a read to say they will definately fold.
The blinds are still 100/200 giving you about 6BB, assuming they dont go up before they hit you you'll have ~900 when they pass which I think is the time you need to start pushing any two. I'm sure you will get a hand better than 96s by then.

I've been pushing this situation quite a bit recently and have been getting loads and loads of 4th places. Definately a weak part of my game.
