26 on FTP: AQ in sb

[memento_mori]

readless, I am really unsure of what the best line is in spots like this, I think you could make an argument for both folding, calling and rasises.
What is your std line in this spot?

unless MP2 is a total donk/station i think calling is going to be a lot better here. re-raising is going to leave you ~1 pot-size bet on the flop. so unless MP2 is calling this re-raise with AT sooted and such crap, call.

Could have phrased that better, but I meant moving AI pf (look at their stacksizes), just raising wouldnt make any sense.

[scottywhen333]

you're right, i ignored their rather short stacks. however i think the same logic applies... if MP2 is calling you light here, shove. that's my view anyway

I'm not sure what exactly the math is behind a shove PF, but AQs is ahead of a lot of his range here. You have some fold equity and if he calls with 22-JJ you're flipping. The only hands that have you dominated are AA-QQ and AK which are all in his range but I think you a shove is still +EV.
