Bubble...akward spot...push check?

[Snarf]

So I'm really struggling with these spots...Its been costing me a lot of money and has resulted in some very strange/akward plays on my part....

I'll admit now - I'm awful - I know.
Also: I don't own SNGPT.

Dealt to Hero [A HAND TO PUSH WITH]

(Lets assume for sake of discussion my hand is good/pushable ...but not a decent wired pair or AK...)

Question:

Whats the plan?
a) Raise? if so how much?
b) Open-push? Seems like a big stack to shove in for only T225...
c) Fold...'cuz the risk/return of either isn't great...

And if I raise....whats the flop plan the 2/3 of the time that I miss?

Sorry if this is elementary...

Not enough info. I play on party, but I suspect my standard play would be to raise to 400 and then decide what to do if someone pushes (dependent on my read and my hand).

What is the calling range of the blinds?

Wide. I expect the shortie to fold most of the time...
(Maybe 66+, AJ+, KQ MAYBE)

I've been playing tight (unusual for me I know)...but I'd still think they'd call, in general on average...any pair, most aces, KJ+ ...

Those ranges are for an open-push and widens if I only raise 2.5x as the one poster said. (to include connectors, lower kings and mid-queens)

What if you had 66? AQ? A10?

EDIT: I play low so I half expect to get wierd calls sometimes...

I don't push any hand here. Raise and play some postflop boy. Generally about 400. I'd like to know exactly what kind of hand we are talking about, what AT/99??

66 is close for me but i push 77+ and A10+
