Default BB AQs decisions 2.25 FTP

Same villain as my other post, same position for me. Is this OK? For those of you who dont know, no reads, and this is the 3rd pot I have been involved in.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t40/t80
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1435
UTG+1: t2660
MP1: t180
MP2: t2620
CO: t2000
Button: t1275
SB: t1510
Hero: t1820

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
2 folds, MP1 calls t80 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t120)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t320</font>, 3 folds, Hero calls t240 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t520)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP1 calls all-in t100</font>.

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t860, 2 players + 1 all-in - Main pot: t580, Sidepot 1: t280)
Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 bets t560</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t1500</font>.
Uncalled bets: t940 returned to Hero.

Turn: 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (t1980, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t580, Sidepot 1: t1400)


River: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (t1980, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t580, Sidepot 1: t1400)


Results:
Final pot: t1980

Do not call preflop, it's too expensive for you (15% + of your stack) so you should either shove or fold.

I prefer a fold in the vacuum.

Fold it preflop, like Rex said its &gt;15% of your stack so you gotta push/fold this. And I dont like pushing here.

I agree. Villain raised 4BB after a limper which typically means he has a hand (as opposed to raising first in). If he does have a hand, there's not much that AQ can beat.

BTW, the answer to 90% of all AQ questions is still fold...
