Crud.

First, I raise a bit more preflop. WIth 2 limpers, I make it t150.

Second, I think I'd push initially. There's about t300 in the pot, and you've got t700 left. Can't let people see turns here with AQx board, plus you're going to get calls like this, because it seems to be a standard bet. Still, I guess your bet isn't terrible.

Third, in your spot, 3-bet reraise. All-in.

you didn't know he had AQ.

i would go broke here too, but with only 15/30 blinds, you should definately not be thinking of your stack as "only 800 chips".

If you're THAT confident he has AQ, I think you can fold and not feel bad about it. It does seem very likely given his action -- especially the min-raise. I'd be less inclined to fold at the low buy-ins, btw. I think it's very important to be confident in your reads and go with them -- even in short stacked sng's.

I wouldn't ALWAYS fold here, but if you're *very* sure of your read I think you can let this go a decent % of the time.

Edit -- Also, I'd probably typically raise more preflop with 2 limpers in. You're giving everyone phenomenal odds to play here -- especially the limpers if anyone else decides to call.
