Really?!?

Does anyone else muck AQo UTG+2 with 18K chips left with blinds 1K/2K. Money is about 15 spots away, so I can almost certainly coast into it, but I'm a below average stack, so if I do just coast, I'm probably going to have 6-7x the BB when I get there. I would push here every time. Curious if others would not...

Re: 2nd break, 3rd place...
 

I might muck that at a full table UTG+2. I might not, so don't quote me. I think it's close anyway.

In CO or CO-1, i think this is a pretty easy push.

I would be tempted to limp in EP if the table is passive.

Chris,
I push here every time, and (yup) it's not even close. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm not normally a fan of limping AQo, but the conditions were right: table was tight and if anyone makes a big raise, it's probably a better hand. Interesting. I was definitely aware of the fact that if I was called I'd be on the ass-end of a coinflip if I was lucky. Maybe next time.
