Default A9o on the button with limper

$300 live MTT. Original stacks 6K. I have 3400. Blinds 100/200. New to table. Mid position limper. I have A9o on the button. What do I do?

When I think about a limping range I do not see to many hands that can call an all in there. If you push here you rake 500 very often which is a good return for a 3400 shove without that much of a risk.

Raise/fold to 550 or so. I really hate limping here.

Its a15% addition to your stack, not insignificant.

I dislike limping behind, and making it 800 to go leaves you with an akward stack for c-betting.

I'm not folding.....so I cram.

Gee Betgo, thought you wouldn't be against an overjam, that's usually up your alley, no?

Regards,
Woodguy

Ah, missed that there was a limper. I'm actually folding this pretty often... is that really bad?

I push in the dark. By which I mean, I didn't actually read the post.
