What are people's thoughts on 3 bet shoving with AQ when 10-15 BBs, 15-20 BBs and 20-25 BBs.
It appears to be my nemesis hand at the moment. It put me out of the Irish Open when with 26 left I had 16 BBs and 3 bet shoved on an initial early position raiser (Andrew Badacker so fairly aggressive and at the time he had about a 60 BB stack) running into AK. I don't think this is a wrong play.
But recently online I keep getting bust fairly late on in tournaments when my stack size is around 12-20 BBs when I 3 bet shove with AQ over initial early or mid position raiser. Obviously image is fairly important of my opponent, but at what stack size and in what situations do people think peeling or 3 betting light is an option. And are you making a small 3 bet with the idea of folding to a 4 bet?
Cheers
