Push check-up, part 2.

[suited_ace]

I'm trying to play as much as I can this weekend, basically to concentrate on my pushing skills. I'm sorry for all the push or not posts, but this is really helping me. Thanks for all the help so far.

Here goes a brand new set...

1.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) converter

Button (t1550)
Hero (t1535)
BB (t1515)
UTG (t1830)
MP (t460)
CO (t1110)

Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero?

2. Some comments on this one: this was the first time I got to level 4 with so many players still there. I'm the second shortest stack, and by pushing I might get them fold or race and hope to get lucky. On the next hand I'll have less than 5BB, so why not push here? I actually checked and pushed when the flop came all rags, and MP1 called me w/ KJo.
