I limp, but maybe too passive here?
Fold to the RR

I limp, call a standard raise if IP. AQ is a death trap early in a SNG with unknown opponents. As played you have to pitch it, you can't get that invested at this point speculating. He also will prob follow through on the flop for 500+.

Its a tiny reraise, so he'll probably only be following through for somethign around 360 or 400 on the flop, but either way, gotta pitch it. You can't win in these getting involved in reraised pots with AQ out of position.

I normally limp AQ here, prob call a 3x raise but could fold. Def fold as played to the RR , we're OOP and readless.

I'd never limp AQs here, much of the value of your hand comes from having the initiative preflop.

As played, I'd fold to the reraise every time, this is never a bluff and often AA.

Fold to the reraise. Usually reraising range is ahead of AQs.
