a 50+5 MTT final table hand (like to get STTF opinions)

[psyduck]

Okay push? Everyone has been playing tight so far. I have only shown down AQ an orbit ago. I hated myself after this push because I'm pushing into the chipleader (Baddbo), but I have ~9BB.

This would be an auto- allin on a STT assuming a tightish range for the big stack (nothing he had done told me otherwise). Does the same principle exist in a very top heavy payout MTT structure?

In retrospect, it was such a marginal all-in, and since big stacks tend to loosen up compared to medium stack, I should have either completed or folded.
