Default Re: AQ from the SB, what to do?

Do you guys really shove this early in a SNG? Even with 30BBs?

I kinda like the way he played it, I think he got more value out of it because the player had so many chips and was willing to call a reraise, but not a shove.

Do you shove because it is a safer play? Usually resulting in a fold, but if he calls then you get full value if you are ahead?

edit: I jsut plugged this into SNGwiz, and it says to fold this readless. They would have to be raising like 50% of all pots, and calling 30% to be a shove.

Shoving 30BBs over a raise is much different than just open shoving 30BBs. With a reraise preflop what is his move if he misses the flop? A cbet is enormous, and check folding a massive pot doesn't sound to great either. I'm guessing you didn't do SNGWiz right.

IMO Shoving>Calling>Folding>Raising (maybe raising is better than folding)
