yes shove PF
yes shove the flop (if you limp)
both fine - but I would have chosen to shove PF - there is 2100 in the middle by the time it gets to you - thats 50% of your stack - by calling and missing the flop, you are throwing away 14% of your stack - so calling is not a good idea with AQ - the strength of AQ lies in either getting the pot already, or getting HU - not against 5 players
so don't muck about with the blinds that big - get your chips in now and make the K5s limper fold, before he gets a sniff of a hand

There are two callers before me (from middle positions) who both have me covered.
I flat call, and both the blinds play. 3000 in the pot, and the flop comes Q spades, 10spades, 7diamonds.
Everyone checks to me, I go all in for 3750.
1 caller from middle position using 60% of his chips. he turns over K5spades on the flush draw, which he naturally makes on the river!
a) Should I have gone all in pre-flop?
b) Was I a bit rash shoving all in when I did?
I'm not sure how i should have played this. Any suggestions would be invaluable. |
