400NL: Getting clever with AQs

[Kristian]

Button and SB are pretty aggressive 23/19/4 regulars, so the 3-bet preflop doesn't have to be a monster hand. I have never done this before, so I was counting on getting a bit of credit for a big hand with my cold call. Please educate me if its bad, and suggest a better line.

Button ($947.50)
SB ($524)
Hero ($591.80)
UTG ($400)
MP ($399.60)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $2.

AQs included in the 'junk' range?

So is there ever any sense to this call against non-retarded opponents? I mean, if you feel his range is wide enough that you are very often ahead, would you 4-bet instead?

And what about same situation with AKo against these opponents? 4-bet push?

Is clever Danish for 'retarded'?

I would rather do this with 67s, but it's not a bad spot if they will give you credit for QQ+
