UTG+1 is 42/8/1 (voluntary put in pot%/pf raise%/aggression factor before anyone asks)

pokerstars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool (Format: Plain Text)

UTG (t3115)
UTG+1 (t1545)
MP1 (t2140)
MP2 (t2050)
CO (t2560)
Button (t1245)
Hero (t1980)
BB (t2465)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Qc, As.
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to t450, folds to hero, standard shove or no?

Obviously if the raise comes from much later position we shove here, but can we shove over a UTG+1 raise?

as Doyle Brunson says, "AQ os is one of my least favorite hands in poker" because it just isnt as good as it looks. I say fold here too. :)

Folding should be pretty standard. UTG+1 just committed almost 1/3rd of his stack, and should be looking to call any re-raise here, AQ just isnt strong enough here, your fold equity is small + your stack whilst approaching the danger zone is large enough to have a sizable amount of fold equity.

Having said that, sitting there after a bottle of wine, unable to chat, id probably shove. :)

well

if we are going to shove we need guy to have some fold equity which we dont after he puts 1/3 of his stack in so yes its pretty standard fold. Unless guy is silly he is calling any shove so yea fold it and be happy.

Pretty low PFR% + EP = fold
