Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

I always fold AQ here.

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

many will push with far less Aces, KQ and such. I'm calling. With your FE after the blinds, you'll be flip'n regardless.

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

This is my though. Cause a good % of the time Ill be ahead but Ill run into coin flips cause I see people push all pairs there. Im a puss when it comes to calling and Im trying to open up my calling ranges a little cause I think it might be hurting my game.

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

I would never ever fold this with less than 5 bbs. Coinflips are not the end of the world and you are going to be dominating/well ahead of a large portion of his range.

You aren't deep enough to want to avoid gambles, money is still a while away.

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

I just ran it through SNGPT. If the villian is pushing top 10% it's pretty neutral. 10% is 55+,ATo+,A8s+,KQs. Looser than that and it's a call. This is probably one of my leaks.

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

AQ and 5xbb with so many people left I'm usually calling. The thing that is discouraging here is that the guy has a healthy stack, which pushing from utg makes me feel he's not desperate, and not pushing a wide range. In this case I'm inclined to fold. Can we get a read on villain??

Re: ($11) - Calling with AQ
 

J,

I think you are really overthinking it.
You have less than 5 bb and AQ. The pusher is an idiot (I assume all my opponents at small stakes are tards until they prove otherwise and there was no mention of him beinga good player).

I think folding really sucks.

I can't believe that anybody is suggesting a fold here.

No read. I was watching the Pistons game and wasnt paying a any bit of attention. This is one of my leaks.
