This seems fine to me.

hm.. thanks for the feedback curtainz, however I would like to explore a bit further /images/graemlins/smile.gif

how do you think my raise compares to PUSH /Fold/Call?

I was considering to push since there were 200 chips to pick up, and after 175 raise, I'm almost commited.

calling does let me see the flop cheap, but I thought it'd be suicide with 4 limipers

I was considering folding as well...guess AQo is too big to pass on?

thanks

I like, but I like pushing even better.

I hate calling and folding. The 125 in the pot is very useful to your stack right now. Pushing is totally fine as well. It's often hard to judge what the right play is in these situations.

Allin is the safe play and raising less is a little more volatile. If you raise to 200 you may end up getting AJ to go allin against you when they otherwise wouldnt, whereas at the same time you might end up having 77 play back at you, whereas they would have folded to an allin.

I like an all in much better for the reasons curtains stated.
