    Facing a 3bet with 4 left to act including the original raiser... Your AQ isn't doing to well here.

    Fold for sure. MP3 just squeezed 1/3 of his stack; people almost never fold when they put that much in (which means they like their hand). Plus UTG+1 and MP2 haven't acted yet

    What if we change my hand to AK?

    I'd jam it - MP3 would have to think pretty hard about calling off the rest of his stack without a big hand and even if he calls 100% of the time you've got enough overlay against anything but the obvious

    Pretty much a snap fold, we have no fold equity and we'll be lucky if he has JJ/TT in his range here.

    Just to clarify, is this your range to get involved here? Because I'd probably agree, just feels nitty to fold QQ/AK.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    yeah I mean I doubt I'd do it sitting at the table, and in the magic days when I could play online I might have just said "LOL table space" since it's a $3 and jammed JJ too. But sitting here jamming QQ/AK just seems meh.

    this is a pretty easy fold. if you are a gambler then getting it in w/AK would be ok here.

    only way to justify getting it in in this spot is if you had a read that MP3 is putting in 1/3 of his stack at this level with a pretty wide range.
