AQs in mid-late tourney
 

Ok so I am a long time lurker and I figured that I'd finally jump in and post a hand. Any and all comments are appreciated.

Ok this is a $5 buy in tourney on Absolute, 128 players to start, 33 left and top 18 pay. Average stack is about 5000.

No real reads on the table, just moved to the table 10 hands ago, except that the villain has limped or called small raises often. I have won three out of those 10 hands, only showing down once and taking the other two down with a continuation bet on the flop.

I'm getting all in here every time.

There are so many more hands he could have here that you beat than hands that beat you. He could have KQ, AJ, clubs, diamonds, pair+flush or straight draw, tons of stuff. Jam it.
