Default Don\'t know what to think

Outcome doesn't matter. Do you thinks my reads are right? I figured the raiser for A middle card and the caller for a middle pocket pair. Is that a fair read? I understand the push is probably wrong according to my read. My reason for pushing it was the first hand and the hands ppl will call with. I figured if i win i coast to ITM. I lose i start a new one.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter

MP2 (t800)
MP3 (t800)

Bad, bad, bad. Would you classify AQo as one of those hands that people will "call with"? I do. Being all-in on the first hand with AQo is usually never correct. Your initial raise is fine, but I would definitely fold to the raise--plus there was a cold-caller, who probably has you beat also.

Horrible. Pick up SuperSystem2 and see what Doyle thinks about AQ. Doing this in a tournament makes this play even worse.

If you are lucky, you are 33% to win this hand. I don't think getting ITM 33% of the time is really getting it done.

Also, it's probably much worse than 33% and there's no guarentee that you make the money even if you win (especially if you play like this).
