Push or raise to 250 preflop. That raise to 375 is kinda ugly.

I'm close enough to 10BB here, that with the limper I'm just getting it all in pre-flop.

As played, you're only called if you're behind (or a villain is a durn fool idjit), but you have to go after the pot, and this is the best time to do it.

I don't think you saw the UTG limper.

I really dont see the value of pushing AQo. We are by no means desperate at this stage...can someone explain

EDIT: my question is PF....no one limps here?

you dont want situations like this where u have commited 1/3 of ur stack and end up in a multiway pot with a whiffed board. hands like ak aq play best when u see all 5 cards.

limping isn't horrible here but I'd much much rather just shove it in and win the blinds 9/10 times rather then hope a card hits me.

just shove preflop with the limper. If no limper, raise more.
