Final Table bubble ($50r)

Thought this was an interesting hand with a lot of history to it.

Playing in a $50 (1rb/1ao) tourney with 10 people left.
1st is 7k, 10th is $250 just for reference.

We are five handed and you have 75k(good for about 4th or 5th around average), blinds are at 1500/3000/150.

You are on the button and open for 8500. SB(80k) makes it 21000 to go. BB(45k)folds. Back to you.....

History:
a lot of history. Villan (pier85 on stars if anyone knows him) has been on your left for about two hours. He's been re-raising alot and you have been backing down quite a bit. He's had control of you but you have had control of most of the rest of the table.

He also made a sick call against you with 33 on a AAQ94 three suited board when I three-quarter potted it on turn and river for over half his stack total. (was chip leader at the point, that was about an hour ago).

So what's your pushing range?

Probably anything I've raised. Given these stacks, we're not ever getting flatted and it sounds like we're getting shoved a lot. So, I'd be raise-calling 66+, A9s+, AT+, KQ+, KJs+, open-shoving some stuff and limping some stuff.

I think raise-folding 10% of your stack with any legitimate holding into a lag and ss on a FT bubble is really bad.

Excellent point. To the OP: What was your plan when you opened? If you didn't have one (esp. 5 handed) then that's where I'd focus.
