Personally I would probably wait for something a little better than A9 before calling an all-in at that point. You still have some bigger stacks behind you also, and what if one of them shove over the top? If you were last to act it may be worth taking a gamble, but I still think I would probably fold at that point. In most scenarios your hand will be an underdog with this call.

I agree that my position was crap... but you don'T give any credit to the factthat it was right after the bubble and the guy was just happy to made it in the money ?

Agree, I dont really like the call given both positions involved.

That said if he makes the move in LP and I am button/SB/BB I snap it off.

No, he is not that low in chips and still has lots of chances to last even deeper into the money, and with one double up is in fairly decent shape. People don't play tournaments to make it past the bubble, they play to win. I think that is the worst justification for a call there, IMO.
