How would you play AQ under the gun after raising initially and facing a re-raise in a low-limit multi table tournament online?

  1. If it was unsuited i would prob throw it, suited i would call.

    Lots of other thing s to take into account tho, is the re-raiser aggresive?

    Is he/she shortstacked?

    Are you likely to be put all in if you call?


  2. I would put all my money down and play my best!

  3. I would look at the flop if its there but if  I  was winning pay the re-raise and keep betting small amounts over the game till the river I go all in before the game ends to get the most profit

  4. depends how much % of stack was re raise?

  5. Call.

  6. It's difficult to answer your question with the limited information thay you have supplied. It's not just as simple as playing certain cards in a certain way depending on bet / raise sizes. Poker is a very situational game and therefore you need to be able to adjust to the specific situation that you encounter. For example:-

    What are the stack sizes in relation to the blinds?

    Do you have a read on your opponent? ie tight, loose, passive, aggressive, bluffs?

    What range of hands does your opponent re-raise with?

    Are their any other players still to act in a better position?

    How big was the reraise?

    What kind of tourney is it? / buy in amount?

    To answer your question all of these factors really need to be considered, then and only then can you make an educated judgement on whether it is a plus EV play to raise/push, call or fold.

    Sorry that this doesnt really help you much but it really is the best advice I can give with the limited information.

  7. They probably have a mid sized pair and you have 2 over cards.  They may also have the same thing you have, AQ unsuited or AJ or AK.

    If they had bullets or cowboys they would have went all in most likely.

    So do you feel like a race, call or push in.  If not, fold.

  8. Poker tournaments are all about how desperate you are to play a hand. If you have a large stack you are not desperate and should fold AQ under the gun, and if you did raise and get reraised throw it away. If you run into AK you are a huge underdog.

    If you have a small stack you want to go all-in at every opportunity and this is certainly one of them. If the antes are in force and the blinds significant I would have just pushed all-in to start with.
