Default $ 6.50 t: A9o UTG and 5 players left

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t100 (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t1780)
CO (t1455)
Button (t3475)
SB (t2525)
BB (t4265)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero raises to t300</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t500</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="gray">BB folds</font>, Hero calls t200

Flop: (t1150) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">Button bets t2975 (All-in)</font>, <font color="gray">Hero folds</font>

I didn't have any reads on villain. I felt kind of lost after his reraise.
preflop: Is A9o utg strong enough for a raise or would you fold?
Villain's reraise cried for a call. I thought of folding but the odds made me call.
flop: I hit the 9 but I instafolded.

What are your thoughts?

a PF fold is in order here, A9o is not strong enough to open raise UTG in this situation

I fold preflop the first time, I fold to the minraise.

I don't know of many situations where anything but a fold is in order w/ a9o UTG.
