Don't open limp at higher levels, unless you have a damn good reason. You should only be limping in the SB, and when others have limped in front of you, lowering the chance that someone gets frisky and raises without a solid hand.

And don't panic. You have an average stack, which likely puts you in 15-20th place with 50 remaining. An M of 16 is fine. Keep playing your game.

I need to know more specifics about the final hand. Ie, your position, your stack, the action. A9s might be a perfectly reasonable push, or a terrible one.
