MTT ...Going all in with...

Ok so happens to me lots and was just wandering if anybody had experience in this area..

I open TT from middle position and get re-raised all-in from the blinds..our stack sizes are about even (25 blinds) ...villian is tight-aggro with stats of around 20/17 ish ...call or not call? what stats should he have in order for me to make a call? or maybe just a squeeze?

and something that just most recently happen to me..

I opened in late position with AQo and get a cold caller on the button and a re-raised all in from the big blind..with both avg. stack sizes..the villian had stats of about 25/5 ...I wasnt sure if this was a squeeze play or not but I decided to just fold since the villian only had a 5% preflop raise and for him to be moving all in I thought his range had me beat..

..thoughts on these?

I'm just a fish, but I don't think you could be faulted for folding the 10's in that first hand. Especially if it's early.


The second hand, maybe I'm wrong, but no raise with the AQ in late position? (ETA: Wait ...... you did raise. I misread)

I think in both cases you had someone who didn't want to play out of position.

The first hand was probably a big ace and would've been a race, imo. Even aggressive villains get hands sometimes. The second, again, was probably a big ace or TT (lol).

Granted, resteals have become more common, but it doesn't sound like you're a major thief. I think the best you could've hoped for barring the unlikely high pocket pairs, was a race in hand one and drawing to maybe 6 outs in hand two.
