No reads, is it worth a shove with 500 in the pot?

No. Fold it. A lot of the time this is a better A or pairs 9/9+.

If the action were folded to you should raise out of SB and call a push.

You still have 12 bb's. I think you can find a better spot to get rich or die trying.

Definitley not a shove with AJ, I fold AQ here almost always also.

Very easy fold. UTG raise deserves a lot of respect at a 9 handed table. Also, there is plenty of time left with that many players still around, and your stack looking good relative to the blinds.

I don't think this is said enough but thanks for the responses, honestly the situation specific help has aided me in my game more than anything.

i fold aj here - no need for a flip or beeing dominated with 12bb

^^ at best a coinflip but very unlikely. atleast jj+ aqs+ also at these levels. u still have some orbits to pick your spot,
clearly a fold. but i would suggest downloading sngwiz u can try it for free 30 days. its awesome. just play around with it learn proper push/fold and review your hhs. really great tool

as others have stated, youre just not ahead of his UTG raising range here without a really solid read. fold em.
