Can't see your bets.

Why not shove PF?

Absolutely shoving flop as played.

Shove PF with aq with the blinds at 40/80? I still have a decent stack and I'm first toa ct with large stacks behind me.

Explain please

Flop shove is good. PF is a tough one. t80 big blind means a decent raise will cut into your stack quite a bit, but an all in, early position, is as you said not great. I like your play here. Definitely shove the flop, esp. after that minbet

You played the hand exactly the same way as I would have.

Preflop: 3bb + 1bb for limper = raise to 320.
Flop: Hit Queen with 2 hearts, ace kicker. Min bet + caller = Push!

IMO, well played! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I dont like a push preflop. To nit-pick, Id make it something slightly smaller though so as not to commit too many chips - 275 or 300.

Flop shove as played is good.
