Default Re: 50+5 bubble question

There's three points to consider:

1) Preflop, did you raise only 600 chips here so that you could fold to strength? Or are you ready to go to battle?

2) What hands do you use to call an allin? Generally my list is AA, KK, QQ, JJ and AK. What about you?

3) If you fold, you do still have fold equity. If you're a good player, and you're getting to the bubble frequently, I think this is a push. I would definately fold AQ here.

In the end you have a strong hand. You are a coinflip against any small/mid pair. I would think that if you used ICM here, you'd find this question to be close. In the end, this may have been a better push PF.
