I'd usually shove this but against a guy this tight I might could find a fold.

Read dependent. If you think he opens significantly looser in LP then EP I shove.

depents on stats, but without a decent amount of hands and very tight stats, I like a push here.

I'm folding this spot.

Against a loser player I might push, but I'd still be reluctant. Having all your chips in preflop with AQ against a tight player doesn't really appeal to me.

This is close I think. Often players with tight stats open their ranges significantly in CO with BB100. His stack size also makes me think there's a good chance he's semi-stealing (say A7+. KJ+).

Also the button's range is important. I might fold this if he's very loose.

Usually I shove and take a note of what the co is raising with (or if he folds).

instapush...you'll still have some fold equity against low-mid pocket pairs...all you're scared of is AK here as he most likely doesn't have QQ or better.
