Level 4 question

[DMACM]

Is this a clear push? I hope not because I folded.

I am trying to adjust my play because I use to play like a maniac on level 4 with this many people and im convinced it was my biggest leak.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

BB (t1050)
Hero (t920)
MP (t910)
CO (t465)
Button (t1535)
SB (t3120)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif.

You have 99. No sane person should ever fold 99 when it's folded to him/her. Push it.

With 5 players behind, its a little bit above a marginal push, but not a clear push.

Its halfway in between. Sorry if I was unclear.

With the new blind level (75,150), I don't know if it would be wrong to call and try to win it post flop. You will have plenty of hands to play.

I wish you would post the buyin amount and how far you are away from the level change.

I don't think pushing is correct. If you push and everyone folds you win 150 chips. If you push and someone calls, you are probably, on average just over 50% to win. It probably has a slightly positive EV, but I don't know that it is enough for the 1 in 7 times (guesstimate) you lose out by pushing.
