Default Busted out on the bubble. Was this the right play?

Based on the advice i've gotten here I pushed with 6 9 suited. Got busted by Ax. I think I made the right play. Any corrections or confirmations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

Hero (t1165)
SB (t3405)
BB (t2300)
UTG (t1130)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls t965.

Flop: (t1265) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t1265) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

River: (t1265) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: t1265

I think pushing into two big stacks needs a read to say they will definately fold.
The blinds are still 100/200 giving you about 6BB, assuming they dont go up before they hit you you'll have ~900 when they pass which I think is the time you need to start pushing any two. I'm sure you will get a hand better than 96s by then.

I've been pushing this situation quite a bit recently and have been getting loads and loads of 4th places. Definately a weak part of my game.
