Game is a $5.00 Sit -n Go on UB

Hand #3833995-93 at SnG-0010f (No Limit Hold'em Sit and Go)
Powered by UltimateBet
Started at 01/Jan/05 13:11:04

stayathomemom is at seat 0 with 8525.
yeldud is at seat 2 with 1475.
The button is at seat 0.

stayathomemom posts the small blind of 100.
yeldud posts the big blind of 200.

stayathomemom: -- --
yeldud: Jh Ac

Pre-flop:

stayathomemom raises to 600. yeldud goes all-in for
1475. stayathomemom calls.

Tournament all-in showdown -- players show:


My reads. My opponent was a solid player playing tight/agressive throughout the entire game. At this point, given their stack size, they were raising every hand by 600. I obviously needed to make a move and thought this was a good time.

Any thought as to the move, or should I have waited?

In tourneys, both sit n go and MTT, this seems to be my trend lately; getting to ITM, but being significantly short stacked to players. I think I am going to start switching gears earlier to build my stack going into the cut off line.
If you put all your faith in the river, you are up shit's creek

Easy push. You don't have enough chips to wait for a hand that's better than AJ.
