Default Re: standard fold or no?

Sorry, it's just that autofolding AQ here is ridiculous. You have position and good immediate pot odds.

At the same time, you're getting involved, early in the tournament, for 1/8th of your stack, with a hand that could very well be dominated, and that you don't really love putting your chips in with unless you hit TPTK or better. I suppose we could figure out the odds of a Q high flop coming down -- I don't know them offhand.

Listen though, I just play 11s and 22s. I'm not an expert. For what it's worth, for me, this is an autofold.

Interestingly, when I played less tables, I would have been more inclined to play this. Now that I 4-table (I can only imagine if I was 8-tabling), I'm less inclined to get mixed up in this sort of a situation where I have to try and make a "read" on a player I've played <10 hands. It's just a bit messy.
