Should I have check/pushed the flop? FTP 50FP
 

It's one of those points multi-sng satellites, winner take all. Think I screwed this hand up. I think I should have check/pushed instead of check/raised. Any help appreciated.

Stacks? Players remaining?

You should include stack sizes. Raising to half your stack and not just pushing is generally not good play.

I edited the OP with stack sizes. It was the final table.

Nath,
Had problem with the converter...modified the op with sizes. it was the final table.

I would have pushed with that hand just because you have a good chance of stealing the small blind, and buying yourself another hand. And on the flop, a push right away would be adequate if someone did call.
