Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6690485, member: 305911"] AQ is crushing the range of a 7 BB open jam being the smallest stack at the table with the blinds coming to them in 2 hands. So I would not be worried about our hand being good against theirs. We are also helping our own equity too and again as stated above, our AQ is way ahead of their range so I would not be thinking this. I get the pay jump piece this argument (getting them knocked out) but I would still be worried about the best way to get chips at this point and not lattering given the stack we have. Very true but it this goes back to what I said about how good is calling villain. We cant assume that calling villain will just check this down with us which is what we need to have happen if we overcall and dont connect. We are very flop, turn, river dependent when we call here. Also 100% true but then we are calling 7 BBs here out of position to a range that we know is at least somewhat good and could be better than ours and we cant do anything unless we hit something. This would be somewhat fine, I guess, if we knew villain was going to check this down with us but we cant even come close to guaranteeing that. Any hypothetical flop if we miss at all and villain bets we would have to fold so I think the odds that we come out good by just calling this (meaning our AQ is ahead, villain never bets if we miss, or we hit someway, etc.) is fairly low. Thats why I would fold this mostly but if I was ever going to get involved with the hand (meaning I think villain would not just be doing this with premiums based on my thoughts on them) then I would jam and make villain have to decide what to do with their 1010, JJ type hands (which they could fold depending on what they think of my range as they didnt jam them to begin with so I would/could be getting better hands to fold). I understand and agree it folds out their worse aces but if the board doesnt come up anything for us anyway our plan was to check it down so we would not be getting any more value from those hands anyway.
