$25 NL HE Full Ring: AQ in SB, standard or spew?

BB is 10/5, but only over 20 hands.

MP2 is 25/3 over 100 hands.

BB has only $6.15 left on turn, so my all-in is just under pot-sized.

I'm trying to learn more spots to apply pressure post-flop. Just wondering if this hand was OK.

Full Tilt, $0.10/$0.25 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 9 Players

Hero (SB): $25 (100 bb)

UTG+1: $18.20 (72.8 bb)
UTG+2: $8.39 (33.6 bb)

agree with belgo. this hits so much of villains range - KJ, QJ, 9T, 89 diamond draw - i just don't see villain folding here on the flop. Then the shove on the turn is just spewy. And i don't see how the shove turn is considered pot size?

Spew. Preflop raise OK. Continuation bet on that board, with poor position and two players after you is dubious. All in raise with a straight draw on a flush board when opponent has small stack seems over the top and desperate. I would have checked the flop and played from there, hoping to see a turn card for free.

If you have the Ad or Qd then I think this is fine, but I definitely just ch/fold this turn and probably dont bet the flop.

It's pot sized because the only villain left in the hand (BB) only has ~$6 left.

I don't like firing that flop into 2 opponents but depending on the BBs SD stats the turn may be OK.
