its close either way, and by either way i mean calling or raising.

But its not so great multiway and out of position. Still I wonder if this call is +EV.

I think I call and see a flop... AQs I reraise unless I know UTG pretty well and think Im behind to AK (UTG+1 may also have AKo if he is passive and not the type to raise AK pre-flop)

You play at the tables with the most money posted preflop I've ever seen.

I think the dead money in there is probably the only reason I'm playing in this hand, I'm not a real superhuge fan of AQo.

My god man. You must be one of those ~12% VP$IP 5-7% PFR guys I give 0 action to unless I have them smoked or am stealing.

What are the stats for UTG?

With the posters certainly comming in with weak hands and the BB likely to come along if you just call I'm more inclined to 3-bet. However, a tight UTG raiser would make me re-think that.

I would probably call.

huh, no I'm one of those loosey goosey VP$IP 19.5 pfr 13 guys. So I'm in the minority here? This isn't a grand multiway hand, and AQo has never been the powerhouse workhorse broadway hand like AK and KQ have been for me.

Easy, easy call for me.

Suited or on the button and i'm probably 3-betting.

Hero calls. I don't think I'd want to build an even bigger pot with AQo out of position.

Do you have a read on UTG? Is he predisposed to raising the flop when bet into? You're in a pretty good position on a favorable flop to bet into the PFR and hopefully he'll help you clear the field.

I'm calling because I really don't want the onus of leading most flops.

this is similar to stellarwind's hand. i said 3bet in his, and i'm saying the same here. that there were 2 posters makes it even easier here though - utg could be raising pretty light.

no one said you have to bet the flop if you 3-bet preflop

I think that one's a bit closer.
