100NL: Weird AQ Hand

[Kos13]

This is my second hand at the table...no reads on UTG, but with the min-raise, the short stack, and no previous hands, I'm willing to assume he's terrible. I'm willing to get it in against him because I think AQ crushes his range. CO is a 12/5 straight-forward reg who pretty much sucks. I've never seen him min-raise like this, and I've never seen him slowplay a big pair.

If I call, UTG can still shove, which allows CO to keep raising. I have a problem folding to min-raises due to the sick pot odds they create, but should I just dump this?

i dont see CO doin this with JJ+/AK. so i over iso to 60 and call the push if CO makes it.

this is a coinflip at absolute worst

i fold here... call with AK.. what is UTG gonna do?

[CalledDownLight]

Will CO fold AK if you iso? If the answer is no then folding is right, but I also have a problem folding to the minraise.

I have no problem folding to the minraise. Smooth calling and then 4betting says big hand especially from a tight player. Calling min4bets with easily dominated holdings will get you killed in the long run in spite of the huge pot odds.

Yes.

Does anyone have certain hands that they include/don't include in his range? Can he have/not have AA? QQ? 88? AK?

[QTip]

I think this is a pretty simple fold. The CO knows this hand is going to be showndown. Calling sucks for so many reasons. Pushing sucks for the remaining reasons. I'd muck it and take notes after UTG gets the rest of his money in and they go to showdown.

I probably call and see a flop just because folding to a min-raise looks soooooooooooooo weak.

Calling doesn't guarantee that I see a flop...CO's stupid min-raise is just small enough that UTG's shove would be a 5bet, not an under-raise.
