Default What is the correct play?

small blind and big blind are average players.

I don't know if I did this converter thing right but blinds are 400 and 200 with a 25 dollar ante. It gets folded around to me on the button.

MP3 (t10325)
CO (t4325)
Hero (t4970)
SB (t6191)
BB (t10750)
UTG (t3825)

1200 is a good steal bet. All in with a bad hand is not.

I would fold. If you want to steal, though, I think you have to push. Depends on how tightly the blinds have been playing. What does "average" mean? How active have you been?

Looshius, what do you do when you bet 1200 and the BB pushes? Fold? Gross.

Meh its marginal, but you've got 12 BB's and aren't desperate and your hand is often dominated by the hands that do call. I think you can let this one go, but just barely.

There are antes, which makes this better. If the guys in the blinds have shown any sign of being loose preflop, you can't do it.

If they have been tight, I think this is an alright play.
