Making the transition from SnG to cash games online so apologies if this seems like a really obvious spot...

I haven't been at the table long and villain has only just sat down, no stats or reads other than they're playing 6 tables.

Villain (SB) has $5
Hero (UTG+2) has $8.30ish

Hero is dealt AQo


Folded to Hero, Hero raises to $0.15, folded to SB who raises to $0.50, BB folds, Hero wonders WWKLD...

We've got position but is there anything much in the average villain's range that's not dominating us here? We can't ever really expect a fold to a four-bet can we?

Fold, you don't have any info about the villains 3b tendencies and you're perceived range is strong so you're likely dominated by his 3b range.

You need stats. I would fold here. Wait for a better spot. An early raise (like yours) is pretty narrow range. Someone playing 6 tables is probably not going to get into a tough spot out of position with worse than your hand.

That's just my opinion.

Thanks for the feedback all :)

I did fold, just wanted to make sure I wasn't being too nitty or anything. Adjusting to playing full stacks again is proving to be an interesting experience after the <10BB shovefests of STTs and the hilarity that is live $1/$3 games...
