You know after thinking about it, I don't like the preflop raise. It would be great if you had 100xBB, but you have 600xBB. With 600xBB, AQo is not the kind of hand you want to play a raised pot with, particularly OOP. You really want to be playing mostly pps, suited connectors and the like, and AK. Also, picking up the pot is not so important.

If you're a skilled player, you really shouldn't be scared of playing what is most likely the best preflop hand for a raise even if its out of position.

But you don't really have the best hand. With the money this deep, AQo is not as valuable as a small pp or suited connector. Plus the advantage of position is greater. Raising here may be correct with 100xBB stacks, but not with 600xBB.
