Live $50 NLHE SNG Hand

[DavidC]

This is the first time I've played a SNG in a LONG time. It's also my first live game for serious cash in quite a while, and it's my first time playing with these guys. I have a very aggressive image, but I don't think I'm seen as a sucker. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Players are relatively new to poker, it appears, and particularly new to tourney play.

I was playing a live SNG with probably 6 players. Two had been eliminated, and I'd recently been removed from chip leader.

UTG folds, button calls, SB folds, and I have A6o.

My stack is t115 after posting a t10 blind (sb = t5).
UTG has t220 and is the chip leader.
There's t25 in the pot.

I raise from t10 to t50, and the button calls.

There's now t95 in the pot.

Flop: J42r

I'm first to act, and push my remaining t75.

What do you guys think?

I've heard in the MTT forum that you should exercise a 10x rule, meaning that if you have less than 10x the blind then you should be pushing your whole stack in if you play. Is this true?
