    Default AQo gets limp/squeezed by 27bb stack, big stack left to act

    First hand at the table, so i've got zilch for reads other than stack sizes and countries of origin.

    i only need to have 33% equity against the shorties range, so i'm pretty sure if we're HU, i'm calling this all day long. 100bb stack behind me is the bigger concern. if i flat, then the big stack is calling right behind a lot and now we're OOP with a hand that's going to miss most flops. i like raising to iso, but that means i'd have to shove and so i'm risking 100bb's for what was already a marginal shot at 40bb's.

    i mean i''m pretty sure we've got the limp/call villain beaten and he's going to fold to an iso 90% of the time and call with worse maybe like 5% of the time, so i lean heavily toward shoving here.

    those who support flatting, do you shove any flop when UTG calls? do we insta fold when UTG shoves?

    What does UTG flat with that will call a shove? JJ? TT? AJ? I voted shove, because IMO at worst your flipping against this guy with more than flip equity coming back.

    Seems like a pretty easy shove. We can expect UTG to make a mistake a large portion of the time and we are ahead of MP's range.
