I seriosuly dont think somebody needs to explain why this is such an obvious push.
anyway:
1)A9
2)button, unraised pot.
3)last on chips.

This is about as close to the definition of "instapush" as I can think of. And I push a lot.

If this a push any A situation? If no, what's the cut-off. I probably wouldn't push less than A7. I've got 5 BB and to be honest that's a lot of chips for me to work with at the 10+1 level where your opponents are complete idiots and will bust and put you ITM so often.

any A, any K, any pair. I think pushing an ace is mandatory, pushing a king its not so necesarry but I prefer to do ti, in the 33s I think I also add Q high.
