Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) converter

BB (t1615)
UTG (t1470)
MP (t1205)
CO (t1010)
Hero (t1145)
SB (t1555)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9, A.

This kind of spot really bugs me, a hand like this in LP with 12ish BBs. I used to make it t275 or t300 here, but it's overwhelmingly likely that someone will only push over the top or fold (i.e. not just call). If they push I probably have to fold, in which case my cards don't matter (might as well be 27o). So do I fold, push, limp, or

Pushing is better than folding here. Even though it seems like the risk/reward is bad, you simply have to push these edges once the blinds are so high. The edge is quite signifigant here actually.
