Default Push against two opponents approaching the bubble?

These late tourney decisions approaching the bubble always frustrate me. I'm not sure if this was the right move. Top 50 pays, were only at about 80 left.

(For some reason, Bison's converter isn't producing the correct output, so I'll summarize)

BB800 , about to increase, I'm down to T4000 chips after the previous hand.

MP1 is first in with raise to T2000 (he has 12000 chips)

MP3 pushes his last T3300.

Hero is next in the cutoff, I push my last 4000 with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

My best read was that MP3 had just pushed in twice in a row, last time showing down A3o.

Against only MP1 -OR- MP3 this is easy, but I'm wondering if it's still the right play with 2 opponents, only one of which could possibly fold.

Reading Harrington V.2 is what convinced me this was a good chance to triple up and get back into it. (but is that so if I have very little fold equity?)

I like the push for 5xBB with ATs. There is no reason to think the miniraiser or the allin for 3xBB has a better hand.

You are really looking for an opportunity to open push, but this is a good enough hand to go with.

Which site? Is there ante?

Party $30+3 R+A, so no antes. 1st hour unlimited rebuys, one add-on at break.
