Default AQo - Preflop question

Pfr is 30/10.7/1.1
CCer is 22/6/1.9


Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, Hero folds...

What did I just do? 3-bet, right?

His stats say he may be loose and aggressive pf (doesn't say how many hands you have on him, tho.) so his range may be fairly broad.
I think I'd call here and see the flop. You don't have enough hand to raise, but I don't want to fold here either. It's close though.

It seems to me I think this is closer than most others. However I'm now leaning towards a fold.

The cold caller is pretty passive preflop, but I think he's a player capable of 3-betting hands that holds me in bad shape preflop, ie AA-QQ/AK (these stats are both over 400+ hands). Still the CCer isn't a fish and he could coldcall AKo I guess, so he isn't as much of a reason to enter this pot. Also there's still 5 players left to act and the chance of anyone of them holding AA-QQ/AK is almost 10%.

I tend to not respect preflop raises by this kind of player. I think he's not at all consequent in his preflop raising standards, meaning he could raise what feels good for the moment. Plus he's rarely aware of the power of position (sure, he probably got some clue), if you compare a TAG with a pfr of 11% and this player this player will raise lighter UTG since he's probably not spotting profitable situations to steal/isolate as often as a TAG.

I tend to call or 3bet in this spot, but I'm starting to believe that's wrong. Fold is probably the best option.

This is what I used to do, until just this week where someone said it would be better to fold/raise. (it was just an open raiser).


What does SSHE say? I used to love AQ, but I'm fearing our fast and heavy relationship may be ending.
