Default Re: Weak-tight-dumb? with AQo on the Stuper bubble

Yeh, if you are going to fold this flop, you should fold preflop. You should call the flop. Villain may be bluffing, and you have pot odds, over cards, a gutshot, and a fairly high backdoor. Don't call if you are going to play weak/tight postflop.

If villain had any legitimate raising hand, he is probably ahead on this flop, but you still have pot odds and outs. Plus villain could easily not have a legitimate raising hand, and you could be ahead with ace high.
Also, don't generally call off a big chunk of your stack with AQo. Part of the problem with flat calling is also that villain is OOP postflop, so he can bet out or push, and you don't know if it's a big stack bully play.

Ordinarily, fold AQo to an UTG raise. Here UTG is a big stack and may be stealing on the bubble. The push has problems, as there are several players to act. However, I would push, but that is how I play bubbles.
