6max or full ring?
suited or offsuited?

A2o is a fold for both
you can shove A2s 6max, but i would fold it full ring

No that wouldn’t be a standard shove with 8bbs, as it would be -EV to shove A2o UTG 8-handed. Hope this helps [emoji4]

Need more information. What position are you in ? What was the action before you ? In general, I don't like pushing weak Ax hands from earlier positions because if I get called, it's very often by a stronger hand like AT+. From early position, I prefer to push hands that aren't likely to be dominated if they get called like 98s. From LP, I'll consider pushing A2o since it's less likely that there is a dominating hand behind me.

No, not from UTG. A small all-in shove is likely to get called by almost any Ace, any pair any broadway, any SC's etc., especially if antes are on, and weak aces are too easily dominated. I'd actually prefer 72 to A2. At least there you're likely to have 2 live cards. Bombs away in late position.
