Default Good ITM Push Or Not?

Taking to heart the advice of playing for first, and settling for third, I played this hand the following way. I had pushed twice against this player earlier at stage of the tourney, and both times she folded. I made two other pushes to steal the blinds from the other player, one succeeded, and I had to show a weak K on the other when I got called. Or is all that irrelevant given the blinds, stack levels, and my hand? Here is the hand:

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (3 handed) converter

Hero (t1322)
Button (t2326)
SB (t4352)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

This hand is a clear allin also and it's not close. Your hand is simply way too strong in a 3 handed game and you are last in chips. Note that if your hand was A2o it would be a very very easy allin also. A9o is milleniums stronger.
