$114: AQ bubble

No reads. Sharkscope says he's played a whole 14 games on Stars. I'm second stack so it's best to just fold?

No reads ?

In the vacuum, I would push AK for sure and don't know w/ AQ but really can't justify this rationally. 2nd stack does not mean that much as you 3 are close so that might be a better reason to push.

I think I'd push, you are not that far ahead with your stack.
I also think it would be very very helpful to have a read here, e.g. how often he raised on the bubble.
No stats?

This is very read dependent. I'm shoving this a lot, and I'm folding this a lot. Readless I think I'd shove.

without read i will fold this, the button will get the big blind after this and you might end in the money.
But if you play to win then i will push here.

this looks so close i think push/fold are near equal. i'd base my decision on how active this guy has been the last couple of orbits.

Yeah, sorry about not having any reads. Since I've never played him I didn't have any stats.

Don't you have stats for him from this tourney? The slightest adjustment to an opening range here means a huge change in EV. I probably fold, but it's hard to say readless.

My stats are overlapping filters but I need a minimum of 25 hands to show up so it must not have made the cut off. I went with the safe route and folded. I would definitely jam AK here though.
