Default $100r pushbot check up

I pushed last orbit from co with ~5k and everyone folded. Push/fold in these 3 hands? Table is 8 handed. Oh and i think we were 3-5 minutes away from 200-400 blinds.

if I had to pick one to shove, it would probably be A9 although I hate A9 in that spot. A9 sucks UTG +1 against competent opponents. I fold all 3 of these and find a better spot next orbit.

First two are definitely folds. Last one I think I'd fold but wouldn't be surprised if push was right.

1. Fold: horrible.
2. Fold: if suited, maybe. Offsuit, no thanks.
3. Fold: I don't like pushing w/ A-rag, especially from EP. I'd find a better spot later.

first two are clear folds imo(esp in 109r where people are more aware of lighter push ranges and you will get calls from some hands that will fold in other tournaments). third hand i probably fold too but like steve i wouldn't be surprised if a shove was correct. also, it doesn't help that in all 3 hands every behind covers you.

I may not be good at a lot of things, but I'm usually good at vacuum-guessing pushbot ranges, and I'm pretty confident that the A9 is good and A8s would be as well.

Sometimes I push all 3 but I think on balance I fold the first two mostly but not the third

Also I think anyone who uses the phrase "wait for a better spot" should not post in the forum. A better spot doesn't always come. The question is if, all things considered, this spot is good enough. Even if you want to wait for a better spot, you might need the chips you'd get from THIS spot to take full advantage of it.
