Hi everyone,

UTG raiser is a loose donkey who is probably opening very wide here (he also just lost half of his stack due to being a donkey ♦).. Villain nr.2 is unknown to me..

Anyway.. Can I call here with AQs? Or folding is the better option because I find myself in a "sandwich position" right? I would probably call/push AK but I was not sure what to do with AQs..

Any feedback is highly appreciated..

standard fold to me...

I'm even folding against the utg min raise...

and if the utg dude had folded I'm folding against the mp1 raise..

so when the utg min raise and mp1 re-raise... I'm running out of there as fast as I can ♦

edit: I missed the reads... but the hand is still a fold

My signature is better than yours

Without reads on MP1 it's fold. With those reads on UTG I would have been raising him as well with AQs.

I think its a push or fold for me(depending on reads/stats), can't see that calling here for 1/5 of our stack is ever good (and can even get reraised by btn-sb-bb-utg)

Against unknown MP1 fold.

Hi all,

In his spot I would never raise AQs. Whether he does or not is another matter. In any case vs the raise and 3bet we should fold our hand.
