Party $33 - bubble hand

[Raiser]

I think this is an easy call under the "you have to finish last and shorty has to finish first to miss the money" rule. Am I right?

Blinds 200/400. 4 handed.

UTG (590 chips to start hand) pushes, button (4690 to start hand) calls, SB folds, I call from the BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (I had 1040 to start the hand).

I just called hoping button would check it down. I called preflop with the intent of calling any bet button would make after the flop. That said, who just pushes preflop?
