    Well that's one way to play it lol. I guess it's not terrible. I probably call pre, just because AQ isn't usually in my 3betting range and you're in position.

    Yup I like it.

    These are situations where you should have an edge on most nl4 grinders with your higher skill level and experience.

    Reading the hand and making the apropriate action rather than sticking to a rock solid abc strategy.

    Not bothered about the limper, or the shorty, obv, the flat call is never a hand that's got AQ in bad shape, shoving can fold out stuff like 22-88 and KQ KJs etc, and can also get called by worse.

    If you're confident theres nowt wrong with veering away from the rigid nitty strategy, just so long as you remember that everything you do, should be for VALUeeee.

    don't like it too much myself, guess it isn't the worst thing
    suppose it's more like a tournament play

    I find it very hard to critisize this.

    Limper has nothing, All-in has anything, flat caller has nothing,so when you shove you're most likely ahead of everyone.

    Also if you know someone can limp/call off with AJ then it's a fine play.

    I think its ok, I prob just 3bet to a standard size rather than shoving
