Ahh, I see. I think I panicked a bit as far as how my stack looked in relation to the blinds. I ended up pushing, he called with A2c and I hit a couple of Kings to double up.

This is precisely my standard opinion on this scenario in the early levels. They have an ace with a shoddy kicker, and can't fold an ace, so they limp, and then have reverse gap principal applied when raised off their power hand.

That's why you should be looking for guys that play 35-40% of their hands preflop to use this move. When they see you push and look back down at QTo or 98s, they are a lot less likely to call. But you can't expect them to fold a pretty hand like A3s.
