Default $60: AQ bubble squeeze

UTG is a newer multi-tabler. I've seen him push loose but not sure about his range here. Flat caller is a standard donk.
I think I have some FE plus a nice overlay. I'm also the shortest and really don't think UTG will go broke without anything too quick here.

I don't think I can let this one go. Good push.

There's no way you have FE. UTG should be on a tight range, and despite the overlay, I'm pretty sure this is a fold.

I agree that his range should be tight and you dont have any FE, but I cant really find a fold in this spot

Shortstacked and short handed; I doubt you will find a better spot than this to push. The t600 bet is a pretty standard steal bet and the button has plenty of chips and may be calling with any even weaker hand than the raiser and is just trying to when a big pot or fold on the flop. Your A-Qo is most likely good I would push and hope for a call from the button.

I think here there's FE over the button, tho probably very little, and even less over the UTG, but i don't think i can fold this and look for another spot. plus if UTG goes nuts and iso-reraises with 9s or something at least we're flipping, and i think a majority of the time we're ahead. nh.

I'm pushing for value. You have very little FE, but you're in a crappy spot as it is.

Insta-shove, lots of good things could happen here both pre and post flop because of the bubble dynamics between the other two players, calling is silly getting short and with a hand that wants to see all 5 cards, folding is ridiculous.

As you have basically zero fe this is a clear fold.
