UTG 2400
button/me 2200
SB 4200
bb 1200

BLINDS 200/400
I get dealt (A Q)

UTG raises to 800
I....


UTG has been stealing w/ pushes... he pushed w/ AK into big stack a few hands ago and showed it. I've earlier in the game (lvl 4) i rerais pushed UTG's raise when he was UTG w/ 1300 w/ 1100 chips and he folded. Does this seeme like a "i want to play vs short stacked BB?

I'm trying to hard to rationalize a, in hindsight, borderline play-- i pushed and he turned over QQ... but i went with my read-- was i correct to belive such a read after seeing what had happened before?

I push.

I think its more likely that he is minraising as a result of not wanting to put any more than 800 in preflop, not as a result of a monster.

I have seen a lot of weak minraising once the blinds hit 2/4 lately.
