Default Re: Re-raising all-in with AQo -- too LAG?

[ QUOTE ]
Generally speaking, I don't like to go all-in with AQ after someone has already opened the pot - especially after a couple of limpers and a raiser. But ultimately this comes down to your read of the other players and a decision as to whether or not this is the hand to take a stand on.

If you decide to go all-in, I would do so as a stop-and-go. As already mentioned, he's pot committed and going to call your raise all-in. So just smooth call and push on the flop. If he didn't hit he is much more likely to fold then versus pre-flop.

One problem with this line, as I see it, is that I want to drop the limpers. Pushing gives me the best chance to do that.
Also, I'm not sure I gain a whole lot of folding equity by waiting until the flop to push. What hands on what flops is he gonna fold for 4K after making that big preflop raise? Maybe KQ if an Ace flops...maybe AJ/AT if he doesn't pair...but is this what I want?
