Here's what I'd like to know:

1) how does everyone like my preflop raise? not enough?

2) how about the flop bet? With that many callers I'm a little unsure about how to play it being so early to act.

finally 3) is this an auto call (of the all in reraise) with no reads? what range of hands could I put this reraising pusher on?

Thanks in advance for the comments.

Lots of pairs do this

He's got a 9. I push all my chips in.

Preflop is fine - 4xBB with no reads as to what will get called.

Your raise is fine. The problem with the first hand of the tourney is that sometimes guys will call your raise with a huge range of hands just to see who you are. Anyway, there is absolutely no way I fold here. Sucks if some donk stayed in with K4soooted or some weird crap, but I agree with exit that this is probably any pair or even possibly AK/AQ if he's a real tard.

Thanks guys, I'm glad to know that I played it right. He ended up flipping over 77 and my aces held up
