Common, but interesting spot from the BB
 

This spot seems really simple, but it got me thinking, and I came up with decent reason for every action possible. It's relatively common, but I thought it was interesting enough to post.

Live tournament at the Commerce. 25/50 blinds.

UTG has $4000
MP has $2500
LP has $6000
HERO has $1550

Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the Big Blind

UTG Raises to 225
MP Calls 225
LP Calls 225
Hero ????

UTG is an old asian guy, and I've seen him limp Aces utg, and limp Kings utg+1 already.

What do you do in this spot and why?

Re: Common, but interesting spot from the BB
 

I would push, particularly since UTG has twice limped big pairs in early position.

Re: Common, but interesting spot from the BB
 

This might be the easiest push ever.

This is a perfect squeeze opportunity to add 40%+ to your stack without a showdown or to get the chips in with significant equity.

I'm pretty sure I had almost no folding equity. He's an old Asian guy, aka nitty, but his range could likely be missing big pairs.

Re: Common, but interesting spot from the BB
 

his range shoudl prob be pairs jj or lower, A10+, maybe KQ. i would think thats it. the only real hand i think you should worry about here is AK. and a nitty opp woudl prob fold most of that range to a push.

so, push it is.
