Default $1.20 45-man always push here?

12 players left, I'm 11 of 12. Button has been semi-aggro. I'm kinda thinking this is a bad push for the reason that with him/her making it 1600 to go. They may have priced themselves into making the call. pot after my push is 5700 and only 2150 more to call which is a little better than 2.5 to 1

The results doesn't matter I'd post this hand if I'd won it. Because as soon as I did I was thinking it was the wrong play.

You've only got 9 BB left. Push over an aggressive player. You've gotta pick spots to acquire chips, and this doesn't seem like a bad spot.

I'd like this a lot more if you had, say, 12xBB. As you say, villain is probably priced into a call here. If you think villain is raising light enough that your KQ is a favourite against his range, then go ahead and push this. If not, I think we can just fold this and find a hand to open push soon, where we will have greater fold equity.

Certainly not a bad push by any means, but maybe you can let this go.

KQo shapes up well enough against his range for pushing to be greater than folding even with no FE.
However, maybe a SNG is a better play. He isn't folding much even then but I guess occasionally he could fold a missed A-high.
