shoving range in latter stages of MTT

edited June 2011 in The Poker Clinic
was in a 109$ tournament yesterday, which is very BIG for me, satellited in and made it top 50, every jump in cash was quite big but once i cashed, i only had ambitions to make the final table and make big big money!
my question is, in an ante tournament in the latter stages, what should my shoving range be? Obv i don't want to be raise folding with anything around 25BB. Is it all PP and alot of Aces, KQ etc? I can't raise fold with A10 for example can i?
I open shoved A9 UTG +1 with 20BB and ran into 1010 and AK, i was kinda dead, should this have just been a fold in this position? Cheers.

    I think you can deffo raise fold from 25xbb......

    Probably from 20xbb too.....

    And maybe 18/17/16.....

    I'd never shove AT utg w/20xbb in a tourny that big (to me), I'd rather fold

    $109 is this on a certainsite that uses a red spade for its logo?

    Anyways At this point you can defo raise fold. Im also guessing this is full ring, so if im shoving Im only shoving premiums in EP, AK, AQ, AA KK QQ etc. However from Late posision if no other opponents are in ill happy shove 72o.

    Its also very table dependant.

    lol yeah! yeah it was full ring, looking back should have deffo folded, A9 UTG +1 is a pretty easy fold lol if in late position like you say, yeah much better, TY.

    ty for getting back to me allows me to make a better responce. Yea A9 is a pretty standard fold. I mean i would shove here under the cicumstances of im less than 10bigs or im on a table of complete nits with 10-15BB. I ont thing your stack in is terrible shape and as i know most of these tournments (although lower stakes the higher one seem to play out very similar) youll find that great spot to get all your money in very soon.
