MTT - AQs facing 5x raise w/11bbs left

Dudeskin8

Obvz I'm not folding but is there ANY reason to with the crazy big raise that bad players often make with monsters, or am I overthinking it...?

Also no reads and it's a BH.

Obv you cant fold in this spot, but in my experience you will never be in a great situation.

As annoying as it is, players play big pocket pairs this way or AK. Suppose you can see 10,10/JJ here aswell, very rarely anything worse than A,Q imo

Logic can be a total merge of dumb things tbh.  holding smallpp and wants to pick up uncontested, has AK and doesnt want to take a flop, random bluff, or chasing out all value with massive hand not really undestanding betsize: its never to induce ship.

As said just total merge of things so AQ can never really be a fold here (as you say), unless we have massive reads.

If we do have cast iron reads that we are never ahead i.e always flipping or dominated we know there is 0FE so could argue for a fold to use our stack in better spot.  But myeh, not really going to happen

probs racing - get em in or versus a weaker Ace

Jam it in his eye. Then be annoyed when his 55 holds up

You have 3 options.

1) Go all in. 

2) call and shove all flops we don't super smash, check the ones we do.

3) have a very accurate read and just fold putting him on Ace and the king or Ace and the queen of a colour that will come out to make a flush. simples.
