Depending on my mood, the tourneys I may have just finished in, the weather outside, or if my heat just kicked on or off. No one factor decides how I will play the exact same hand. I believe this applies to others as well. If I push all in first hand, then I am saying that I am ready to go ALL OUT. I personnally will raise about 3 times the BB. I will watch how the others call or raise. I prefer to see a flop and then decide if I want to move all in with those pocket Q's K's or A's. I may have the best starting hand, but it is the one with the most nerve that generally will end with the pot. The best starting hand does not guarantee the best ending one. We complain, moan and groan about the bad beats that we receive, and forget about the ones we gave. If you don't have the chip lead at the table any ALL IN can put you ALL OUT. Are you prepared to go?
