($114) AQ 5-handed vs big stack?
Villain is probably raising a fair number of hands here. Do you fold, push or stop and go?
PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com UTG (t4240) CO (t695) Button (t4770) Hero (t2270) BB (t1525) Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t1200</font>, Hero ? |

Seems like a good spot for a SNG. He's certainly not folding preflop. Folding is silly IMO.

I def shove, there ARE 2 shorter stacks than you BUT, you arent on the bub and would only have 5 BBs if you fold. AQ 3 handed I'm in here in just about every acenario.

Re: ($114) AQ 5-handed vs big stack?
Sure it's strong but it's far from invincible.
I really think a stop and go is best to give ourselves the best chance of not busting here because of the stack sizes.. wouldn't you agree? |

Either way you want to achieve this, get your dough in the middle. I can agreee with a SNG, but by default I shove PF. Main point being, a fold is out of the question.
