    Default $22, AQ multiway lvl1, facing overbet shove

    Pretty much wanted to shoot myself after I saw the shove...looked up villians stats to see -20% ROI over 200 games. Still wasnt sure what to do given how many players were still left to act. No advise about preflop please

    i let it go. Without reads on UTG we dont know what he limps, what sb minraises, or what bb calls with. I can see him having J10, but i also beleive he can have Q9, 44, or very rarely 99. Fold and lose 40 chips, call and win, we double up which means little this early. call and lose we're out 22. As played i cry and fold.

    I would raise this preflop, I make it 100 to go. Even if we hit an A or Q on the flop, I feel much more confident playing for my whole stack heads up rather than with five opps seeing the flop.

    As played, I call the shove. I have a mantra that is that a gross overbet like this is very often a hand that does not want a call rather than a monster, so I would expect to see JT, Qx or TT/JJ rather than AA/KK, a set or two pair. If he does show you something that you're behind, make a note on him for next time and fire up another one.

    If we were HU with him I would call this shove 1000000%... You're way ahead to think about early stuff IMO.. other player might have caught smth but still I think I call the shove here..

    Never fold. KQ/QJ/JT would definitely cover most of villain's range if he's that bad. Snap call.
