Re: Shoving with AQ in 3.40 turbo
I think a good argument can be made for shoving preflop at this level (3.40). Min raise is pretty weak from EP and the flat call looks weak as well. This would be as wide as I'm shoving pre tho.
As played, on the flop after a bet and a flat call by the pfr, I think we should be raising here, but making it more than 450 (the pot is already pretty large, it's at 825) so we should be raising a lot more. I would be raising to somewhere around 750 and being happy to get it all in. When UTG raises, his line looks weird and strong, but since it's a 3.40 I think we see enough weird stuff here to warrant making a re-raise. Maybe he slowplayed a set or has AK, but I think villain's at these levels show up with enough weirdo hands to make it a good shove.
If I am raising pre, I am shoving. I don't like raising to 500 and leaving 900 behind (which we'll probably just be shoving in on the flop regardless of if we connect).
