I push the first one, and the seond one is close, but I think at the 16s you may get enough calls (by weaker aces) to make a push profitable...

pushed them both and lost 2 small pairs. standard for me, but some discussion earlier about AQ made me consider a limp here. Thoughts?

If you limp and someone else pushes, you are going to have to fold so I don't like a limp. I really hate when SnGs reach that blind level with so many players left.

I doubt anybody was advocating limping AQ when the blinds are as high as they are here. Especially not when you are as short as you are. Which discussion was that?

i push both pretty much always. the only exception i can think of is the UTG limper in hand one specifically limping big hands early, which doesnt happen very often and requires a specific read...so shove [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
