Easy fold right, deep BvB with AQ? 27.50 $25k

[Chesskid1]

27.50 deep itm, guy has been playing pretty aggro. I DBed him and he was a marginal loser but played pretty high. Villian was also at the $100r FT with a friend I was railing so he was running goot, but also a thinking player i would say.

this is with about ~40 left, we are both top 10 in chips.

i think this really depends on your reads, and how villain sees you - for me this push looks more like a "hey don't resteal from me" move, than a value bet

there are only few hands that crush you (AA,KK,QQ,AK) - from these hands at least AA is really unlikely he plays that way.

Another point for calling is you are suited.

If you call you will be mostly flipping i think - your pot odds are about 1:1,2 - so if you like to gamble call it - but i think you can find better spots than this one.
