What to do
 

Down to 19 players at my local card room. Top 9 pay. 100+15 buyin. Blinds are T10,000 and T20,000. I have T35,000. UTG I get KT offsuit. Blinds raise to 20 and 40 next hand. I am by no means on the low stack here, that is just the structure. Do you push all in here or fold? I pushed all in and was almost beat into the pot by AQ and then again by AA. Obviously I was beat but since they were going up next hand I guess this was the right move. Someone just reassure me....

I would do the same thing. I have gotten knocked with KT a lot. But you are in anyway and a good chance if you called you have two live cards.

Easy all-in. KTo is more than likely a better hand than the next one you'll get.

I agree with Moghovich here. Sklansky, in Tourney-FAP (pg 64-66), says that you should play with slightly-worse-than-normal hands, but still fold merely better-than-average hands. In other words, if the blinds are going to knock you out anyway, loosen up your standards just a bit.
