how to play this?

utg +1 raise 2 bb button raise 6 you smallblind has AQ suited in the ft stacks of 30 effective what would be the best play

In FT there is ICM involved and after a raise from the utg and a 3bet, I fold this hand, also because he has the utg to act and depending on his hand he can shove and we will be in a very bad situation.

it also depends on the player, in any case, I would press the call and see the flop

 

[Gallarado777]

I think the fold can be considered a call also looks great and I would press call after watching the flop and continue playing from it because the hand is very good it won't be a mistake to watch the flop for sure and then it all depends on the player if and on the opponents you play against

what stage of the tournament, there are notes on opponents, I think in a vacuum, if the opponents are adequate, then their range is much ahead of ours

 

[ADRI7HO]

If it's a freeroll tournament, then the call or even all-in can be an option, but if it's a few dollar or even higher game, then in such a situation even the fold can be considered, but the opponent's play up to that point can also influence the decision.

FT evaluation has to be concise so we need # of players left stack sizes of all players -we need this because if there are six players left and the two players in the pot are in the top 3 and so are you the advice changes for AQs vs other possible scenarios

What is the stack size of utg+1 and the button and BB? You stack size? 3Bet % of button? If utg+1 is the chip leader and button has 30BB, his putting 20% of his stack (6BB), is he doing it on AJ or JJ?, where AQ will dominate AJ and 50/50 on JJ. Your chopping with AQ, underdog with KK, yes your blocking QQ and AA but if his 3bet is under 5%, its AK+ and QQ+. Given above information its a tight fold for me.

 

[Canaldo Kao]

With this hand I would call just to see the flop!

As others have mentioned, you need to post this question with 'more information' (ie. include all stack sizes by position, player reads/history, our image, payouts).
It's a good question (imo) as it potentially can be one of those types of spots that are right on the edge... but definitely need more information.

 

[okeedokalee]

You are being asked to call a 3bet OOP... What is the 3bet range for the button?What is the 4bet range for the initial raiser from UTG=1? Why has the button 3bet player in early position when raises from there are strong?When that player raises first in from that postion that range is usally strong.
What is the cbet stat for both players still in the hand. When you miss the flop and face a cbet...?!
AQs could be facing AK and all the strong pairs. I think on an FT, fold is best.

At ICM I prefer to fold my hand and avoid headaches.

bec it's ft ill just fold

 

[dompoker]

Close to the final table it's better to wait for a better hand, if it's easy to lose with AA imagine with AQ.

More info would be nice but let's just assume the btn is raising w/a similar hand if not or something.
The utg+1 is likely waiting to pounce w/ or another big pr, I've seen it too many times after a min-raise, per my feltic travels. AQs is only a calling hand if your stack is big enough to fold to a shove .7:1 or bigger, assuming you know the +1 guy will call the btn's raise. This is the worst-case scenario, of course.
If you have that funny feeling in your gut after the btn raises, then I'd fold.
If you have that other funny feeling that the btn is just trying to make a move because the +1 has a shorter stack, then a big-fkng jam from the SB is not a bad play. This really depends on your past history w/these players. GL.
