Default 25+2: Push or play it tricky?

My thinking is that I should take the dangerous route here and not push or standard raise but call (mini raise?). Thoughts?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2555)
UTG+1 (t1005)
Hero (t1100)
Button (t1017)
SB (t2527)
BB (t5296)

Preflop: Hero is in CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Shove. Don't get tricky, you aren't deep enough. You want to get called when you have a monster when you shove every now &amp; then. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

The whole table was pretty passive.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I did probably the worst. I standard raised 450.

Hopefully loose-passive. Either way, just shove and you should get looked up a fair % of the time.

If you get called here - your Fold Equity just went way up for later, pooosh.

If he doesn't get called doesn't this make the fold equity go down for later?

None of this matter though, push this hand. Against clueless opponents the raise to 450 would be better than an all in with AA though.

You aren't deep enough to screw around push.
