Is this play alright?

I have 10X BB in CO+1 holding AQo, UTG is an average player open raise w/ 3xBB.
Do you guys like my push here? or I made a major mistake?

I would fold preflop!

I don't really like it... he bet a third of his stack UTG so he is probably willing to go all-in and you are much better off stealing from random cards. Avoiding conflicts and stealing from the blinds is the way to play I think.

In this situation I'd make that play with any good pocket pair (10's or J's and up) and maybe AK if this guy was playing loosley but even AK is likely a -$ev play. Folding would be the best play I think.

You're making this push to make him call, not fold.

Thats one thing you should keep in mind, and act accordingly: put him on a range.

with the blinds bleeding him next hand, it's probably correct to think you are ahead here. but in relation to the rest of the table, you're not in TOO bad of shape. open/push yes, call...probably not. you still have 4 guys behind you too. tough time to run into a hand that big-stack is getting priced into calling with.

edit: advice above in regards to your push (used the wrong word in there a time or two)...i don't recommend calling either - fold.
