Question from my first session (reposted form mid-high stakes)

[tolbiny]

NL 100 min 200 max buy in. Blinds 1-2. 7 handed at the time.
Villan in this hand has gone all in preflop three or four times (over the past three hours). Once agaist several limpers, and the other times against a small raise and a caller or two.

I open raise for 10$ In UTG+1 with A Q. There is one caller and the villian pushes in for ~65$. Its folded around to me- with the one caller telegraphing his fold.
I have him covered with around $400 in my stack, and the depeest stact at the table is around 500$.

call or fold?

Edit: Once after pushing and having it folded he flashed AJo.

[AncientPC]

I'd fold.

If I was in position and had him pegged as a LAG I'd call.

[tolbiny]

Position? He pushed all in, and it going to be heads up 99% of the time.

[ShakaZulu]

I think he means are you at risk of having a large stack push in after your call to try to isolate.

[AncientPC]

Well then I'd fold. I don't like calling with a mediocre holding like AQs for 1/7th of my stack.

[tolbiny]

There is no danger of that in this situation. I made a samll raise was called in one spot, and then the next player pushed. It was then folded back to me, and i noted that the first caller was ready to muck.
I felt since he had done this a couple of times already (once flashing a mediocre hand, AJo)- and since his all-in wasn't a huge portion of my stack, and since he had position on me there was a greater range of hands he might do it with, (and one more to keep the run-on a running-on) and i didn't want to be in the position of him pushing over my raises all night- i decided to call.
Those were my reasons for calling- if AQs is to weak of a hand to do this with, i can accept that. I just don't know how my typical limit thinking applies to NL, and i am going to be plagued with questions like these for a while as i adjust.

I agree that you shouldn't open-raise AQo from UTG+1.

I also think you should fold here. AK, call. AQ, fold.

Where was this game at?

Online I would fold.

Live, in cleveland, you should have a good enough read as to his likelihood of making this play with a lower pair or worse. I would be much more inclined to call if it was live. Due to your description of the player I would call here.
