Final Table, 8 left

Chips stacks range from 8.5k to 80k.

I had 50k.

I am first to act with AQ suited.

How would you play?

Blinds please. It'd also be nice if you gave us the specific chip stacks of the players in various different positions, but if you don't have that info, it's ok.

Blinds were 3000/1000 or about that - it was early in AM and I do not recall exactly.

you mean 3,000/1,500? at that point there would also be about a $150 ante too.

you M there is about 8.5, so it's ceratinly time to think about pushing with some big cards. but if somebody only has $8,500 left i wouldn't mind slowing down a tad until he was gone.

i'd rasie 4x and try to see the flop. i'd probably call if a smaller stack pushed.

push if you make something, get away if things get crazy after the flop. that would leave you with enough to still out last the small stack.
