    Default UTG limp, AQ

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG (t20335)
    UTG+1 (t24805)
    MP1 (t1900)
    MP2 (t9417)
    MP3 (t4300)
    Hero (t9880)
    Button (t16268)
    SB (t21188)
    BB (t7620)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, A.
    UTG calls t600, 4 folds

    Hero?

    This is third hour of the 20 FO on stars (the Red guaranteed tourneys have 3k starting chips now!). About 200 left, 135 money. Ave stack is around 15k.
    UTG hasn't been at table long, got most of his chips calling a raise with A9s, flopped a FD and moved over top on the flop with it. I think this is his first limp.

    If your line is raise, but not AI, do you call a push, and what is you line if you get called and checked to on the flop.

    You're in position so you have lots you can do.

    1) raise - if he pushes, I fold AQ here pretty easy. If he calls, I am likely to take the free card on the flop.

    2) push - meh, seems weak to me.

    3) call - play a flop. Although I generally would not advising calling with AQ, with your chipstack I think this might be the best play of all.

    Depending on the player, I'm raising or folding pf.

    1900 pf and use position. Fold to a l/r pf (l/r is too gay to go broke on here).

    Push is fine with antes.
