Was this the spot to push

[rabbitlover]

I keep 2nd guessing myself about this push. Almost $9K difference between 1st place and 8th.

So based on my stack relative to the other players, and the blinds/antes, was this a hand to push with? I only had two other players covered by my stack (barely).

I find I can make my way to final tables, but never it seems as the big stack. In this tournament I had been completely card dead for the previous 5 levels.

All thoughts appreciated.

I certainly hope you're not folding AQs there.

Yea, guess I'm just bummed out. This is about the 5th final table in 6 weeks with no win. All my cashes together don't total one win.

Thanks.
