Guess I'm too tight. Cause, I'm not calling 5 X BB pre flop w/ AQos...

The point is not about calling AQ PF for 5xBB. It's about calling AQ for 6% of your stack PF with big implied odds.

This is the only point in the tournament where you have anything that looks like a deep stack. Failing to play here (or in similar situations) leaves you inevitably at the mercy of forced coinflips less than 30 hands from now.

Best,
