Hi guys,

ship it preflop? (kinda dont know at times what to do in these spots, depending on stack size)

Which stack size would be borderline between folding and calling AI?

...like 10BBs+ fold, and like <10 BBs call...? or what better?

Perfect spot to get it in. With your stack size you have no fold equity to open shove anything, and T9s plays very well multiway. So you have decent equity to triple up here. I'd probably be willing to get it in with up to 10-12bb for the same reasons, but after 12bb I'd start to think about folding. It really depends on your own comfort level with playing shortstacked; if you struggle with shortstack play then you should be inclined to get it in with a larger stack in these spots, whereas someone more comfortable with shortstack play might be more willing to pass up a spot like this to maintain a 10-15bb stack.
