I personally would not shove with 99 early in a tournament. Hell, I folded J-J in BB to a early position all-in for 2/3 of my stack recently. partially cause it was early in tournament, partially cause it was a tight/rock player who I had not seen play a hand in like forever. He looked at me and said "you folded that??" which basically told me he was on a draw..AK, AQ, AJ, A-10 or maybe 10's but I felt it was right to fold at that time so I did. you have to take into account the player you are facing. tight player= looser calls and c-bets. loose player = better starting hand requirements and so on...these are all generalizations but you get the idea...
