well, effectively your only shoving like 13bb's, this is a pretty standard shove, his calling range should be really tight here, id be shoving much wider than KQoff here..

I wouldn't be shoving muuch wider than this, probably KJ or K10 suited at best so sure this a good shove. There would be no reason to raise 3x,4x the BB and commit yourself to the pot, why not just shove.

really why? I'd probably shove A5+, K8+ 22+.

If you ask me it's really not worth it.

Your risking too much on naturally a plain steal.

At least with the KQ he may call you with their KJ K10 K9 so on and so forth. The only hands dominating you are large pairs and AQ, and AK so you're more or less well off.

If I was to move with A5 and be called by a rag such as A7..

Personally, I see it as not worth the risk.
