Default Tough spot with AQ preflop

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero (t7935)
BB (t6436)
UTG (t7675)
UTG+1 (t3570)
MP1 (t23798)
MP2 (t6177)
MP3 (t6060)
CO (t17297)
Button (t10990)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP2 calls t400, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t1200</font>, Button calls t1200, Hero??

$10 buy in, 90 left out of 590, 63 are paid. Average stack is around 9000. No reads as I was studying at the same time.

Default Re: Tough spot with AQ preflop

i'd fold it pretty quick - its an ok hand to raise with not to call. he could easily be making an isolation raise with AK. If he has a pocket pair you need to catch - if an ace comes you are committed but may be behind. And you are getting the button next and not too short stacked - no real reason to play this hand.
