late stage hand
 

this is from a live tourny. i have 9K left after posting the 600 sb. blinds
are 600/1200 with 100 ante. averge stack is around 16K. 9 players at table. folded to CO who raise
to 4400, he has about 30K. pot is 7100. I have Ad9d. I went all in. maybe i should fold.
maybe i should call and bet any flop? he had JJ and won. it's 2700 in
each pot and i have 9K left so my M is just a little over 3. is this
the time to make my move or shoudl i fold?

Well, we know the results now so....

However, I think I'd rather be the one pushing with A9s than calling with A9s even though vilians range is pretty big here. And they're are some that'd even advocate not to push with As but as you said, you're getting low and 1st in has it's advantages.

I think I fold. It is pretty close though.

I would rather wait a hand or 2 and push with blanks into the blinds, then push with A9s here, cause you are almost certainly getting a call.

We aren't gonna be very far ahead if we are ahead, and we could be a pretty big dog.

Plus, 1 hand from now you have the button and blinds are huge, if nothing else you can move up a few spots while waiting for your hand to push with.
