$16 - AQ bubble vs reraise

mattiesmat · #1 11-18-2007, 10:15 AM

SB had been very tight so far.
However AQs is a monster here.
Can I push even with the shorty and SB having me covered?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) by Hand Converter CG

UTG (t980)
Hero (t3705)
SB (t5820)
BB (t2995)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
1 fold, Hero raises to t500, SB raises to t1600, 1 fold, Hero ??

Open push 18.5 BB's into blinds with 29 and 15 BB's?

It's fine as played, now fold.

if we make it 500-800 pf its perfect for the bigstack to push/raise with any two. mayb a limp is something you can do!?

i realy like pushing this pf!

Yeah, we gotta fold.
Think open push is better.

No problem folding here, specially if sb has been tight so far.

pushing is +ev here as I really doubt that SB/BB call more than 5% here. As played I'd fold. If blinds aren't aggro (known to resteal) I think opening to 500 is ok.

Raising to 500 is good against two bad players who aren't exploiting the bubble with the big stack. Shoving and getting called sucks because you have a good chance of bubbling when there is a 5BB stack. Against an aggressive big stack I think I'm just folding since I don't feel like getting shoved over if I raise or spite called if I shove.

You aren't seriously suggesting open folding AQs on the button?
