    FORTUNE500 - Limps? Raises? Mucks?

    It's just weak enough that if you get reraised, you'll have to let it go. It seems too strong to muck, and limping doesn't really feel right.

    Is just tossing it the proper play, at a full table?

    Later, with reads and a shorter table with higher blinds, this is less tricky... but early on, what's your line?

    Too early. I fold.

    But that might be because I lose any hand with AQ in it, regardless if I have it or my opponent does.

    Seriously, is it still too early that you don't have a feel for the table? I fold this unless I think it's a tight table and will know what I'm up against with a caller or raiser.

    I'd almost rather not get that hand early SNG, but still you gotta play it I think, just carefully. Std 3x raise(similar to AK) or limp, lay down to much of a RR.
