Default $6.50, first hand, our shove range is?

Hero is UTG with two cards (15/30, everyone on 1500)

Hero raises to 100, UTG+1 calls 100, 1 fold, MP2 calls 100, MP3 raises to 330, CO calls 330, 3 folds, Hero?

No reads on any opponents from previous games, our shoving range is what here? We can't fold anything that we'd reasonably raise UTG here, can we?

I'd shove AA and KK, call with QQ and JJ (maybe lower, but I doubt it), and fold AK. Someone has a pair, and everyone else has all the aces. If you get your money in there with AK, you're not in as good a shape as you'd think.

If it's a turbo, I'd shove QQ as well.

It's a turbo, and there's no way I'm calling anything here, it's push or fold. I had QQ and shoved, would probably muck JJ but I'm not raising that initially in the first place. AK's the only hand I'm unsure about here.

I'm raising AK/QQ+ here and with all the extra money from additional callers in the pot I'm probably shoving with any hand I raised with.

I think jesse brings up a good point. It's possible that all 5 players have a pocket pair but it's more likely that one or more have an ace in their hand. In a 5 way all in AK is only going to be 21-22% favorite over their ranges (any pair, any ace, KJ+) compare that to QQ which is almost a 40% favorite over the same field.

Not really relevant, although my QQ was good against re-raisers AK and some donks 88 if you must know

With the overlay you're being offered, I'd shove JJ+, AK.
