At this point there were about 130 left and 99 got paid. I did not care about the bubble and was looking to accumulate chips for the FT. Assuming this is the correct line, what type of hands would of been a push? I'm thinking AK, AQ, JJ, TT and maybe 99 are pushes with AA, KK, and QQ being too good to steal blinds.

Also, I was playing this hand to the end. I did not raise pre flop with the intention of folding ANY flop.

Push it. Next hand.

what they said.

he just bet half your stack, what are you gonna fold? calling is out of the question.

this really is a no brainer. you just ran into a hand, next tourny.

I'm not questioning what I should do on the flop. I checked with the intention of moving all in. My question is pre flop push or raise? And the second part of my question is what hands are a push instead of the raise, assuming AA, KK and QQ are too good.

I shouldn't have even posted the results because they are not relevant.

I guess my wording in the OP was poor. I meant raise or push PRE FLOP. Does anyone have any opinions on this?

To answer your question, given a general table situation, I think I would raise pre-flop 30% of the time and push 70%. If I had some reads on the table play (as well as my own image), I would adjust those percentages accordingly. But by default, I'm likely pushing.

Lesson learned. I'm raising 100% of the time. Hero needs the action.
