Any reads ?

Generally speaking you don't get get propper odds to set mine deep in MTTs very often.
We need 12:1 to 20:1 (opponent stack : bet).
Here:
Seat 1: fekinel (48,586) BTN
Seat 2: gedmac (127,701) SB (given he completes) ~53:1
Seat 3: carlymarieb (73,500) BB (given he checks) ~ 31:1

Seat 4: LiamBeck18 (49,068) UTG ~ 20:1
Seat 5: shug-mc (104,136) UTG+1 ~ 43:1

Seat 6: IdleMac (58,341) MP -folded-
Seat 9: aancott (30,563) CO ~ 13:1
Dealt to fekinel [9h 9c]

Potsize is 12600 before you act.
Now my line of thinking would be:
  1. 12600 represents about 25% of my stack
  2. I want to win this pot
  3. SB and BB both have us covered and will be possibly squeezing if we limp / bet small
  4. With what are UTG and UTG+1 limping ?
  5. This is a freeroll
I can't see anyone exept "maybe" utg limping anything better than 99.
We do have set mining odds BUT if we limp SB or BB are very likely to squeeze-shove.
My line:
Shove pre and either take down the pot or possibly flip for double up / turney life.

i could get away and wait.
i'll see if anyone else posts any replies.

IMHO this is a tailor-made bubble spot for you to shove.
