I think this is a push 100% of the time. If I only wanted to tussle with the blinds I might min-raise to 500 or 600 and call any push back from the blind.

No, I wouldn't. I push this every time.

Def a push every single time when your first to act at that chip stack. Just sucked that your 9 high didnt hold up.

I really thought it was an easy push (which is why I did it/images/graemlins/smirk.gif) but I just wanted to make sure by posting it. Basically, I have had a bad run the last few days, so I'm just taking some time to evaluate my game in some of the decisions that where crucial to my success in that tournament. And this time it was the pocket nines which would make me or break me for this tourney.
