Default I feel so rusty.. Stars $530 Mill

Literally my first hand at table, I got moved before the break. Don't recognize anyone. Looking at the HH, 3 people have been stacked in the last 5 hands. The late position limper was the last one to win a big pot.. the others were not involved.

My tournament game is real rusty. What to do?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (9 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG+1 (t9855)
MP1 (t14075)
MP2 (t8375)
MP3 (t11225)
CO (t27410)
Button (t14175)
Hero (t6650)
BB (t44500)
UTG (t4725)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls t300, UTG+1 calls t300, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Button calls t300, Hero completes, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t1500) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t900</font>, UTG+1 calls t900, Button calls t900, Hero?

It doesn't' really matter if you shove or call IMO

Shove is pretty good. 4200 already in the pot so you're shove amounts to roughly a pot sized reraise. Getting everyone to fold here would be an awesome result and if you get called you can at least be sure the 5s &amp; 10s are both outs for you (KQ can't call that all in - whereas you get stacked when the 10 hits and you let KQ stay in).

That said, raising to something like 3000 and then shoving any turn might look scarier, and as a result might have more FE. Just a thought.
