AQs in Middle Stage of Tournament

i wanna be me · #1 03-17-2005, 05:13 PM

PokerRoom European Daily - $50+4 (158 entrants) - top 20 pay (11-20 roughly double entry fee, first $2000, second $1400, third $900, rest much less).

Hero is 70th/77 with ~T1500 - playing very tight at a pretty loose table; haven't gotten any cards yet.

Blinds 75/150 - last hand before first break

Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the BB

1 limper from middle position - chip leader with T10000 (have been conversing with him and know him from other tourneys - he's a solid player, nothing special though), button with T3000 calls (no solid read yet), SB folds (pot 525)......Hero ?

Hero?

preflop: raise from 600 to all-in
flop: get the chips in

I assume the blinds are going up after the break, to cripple your stack even more.

I push preflop.......

If it went to the flop, I bet the way I think will get the most chips in the pot.

Woulda pushed pre-flop ...

So on the flop, w/your stack, push it real good.

Gotta push this. Seeminly worse case is an underpair calls you.

I push preflop with 2 limpers and AQs out of position.

Since I assume you chose to check and see the flop free, i look to double up here and depending on how aggressive the opponents are, will let them bet the hand for me but I'm all in at some point in this hand. How you end up trying to extract the chips is very read dependent as well as what may come off on the turn.

Re-raise to 600 on pre-flop then push on the Flop
