Table has been fairly loose/passive, except for the button. What do you do here with AQo?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) converter

UTG (t600)
UTG+1 (t625)
Hero (t1010)
MP2 (t685)
CO (t460)
Button (t2438)
SB (t1407)
BB (t775)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Final Pot: t1260

Pretty easy push.

Edit: t250 dead money in the pot, you'd love to just take it down, you don't mind a caller either though because your hand is very strong.

you're raising, and with your stack size relative to the blinds and what's in the pot already, might as well be "all you can eat, baby"

I'm pushing.

When the six hands yet to act each call about 5% of the time, you'll get a caller about a third of the time. Up the calling range to 10% and you get a caller nearly 50% of the time. You'll be getting action often enough anyway, no need to do any fancy slow playing stuff to lure more chips into the pot.
