Your pre-flop raise is a bit on the large side but not by much. Everything else is fine.

Why push there?
If he has a King, for sure he calls and you're out. If he doesn't, he folds and you don't get more chips out of him.

Because it's a $5.50 SnG and you'll get calls from TT, JJ, QQ, 9x and random crap all the time.

In a tourney this small on Stars I open shove expecting at least 3 callers.
Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R
KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.
