Poker Stars $7.34+$0.66 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t600/t1200 Blinds + t125 - 6 players - View hand 1806115
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

SB: t7756 M = 3.04
BB: t11342 M = 4.45
UTG: t10323 M = 4.05
MP: t16785 M = 6.58
Hero (CO): t23787 M = 9.33
BTN: t7396 M = 2.90

Pre Flop: (t2550) Hero is CO with A :spade: Q :spade:
2 folds, Hero raises to t23662 all in, 3 folds

If this is a pre final table bubble of 180-man on PS, how wide can I push in similar situatuons? Is ATC a reasonable range?

Depends on your image I guess but probably shove with atc will fold out most hands.
You have a nice position where the only player who can really damage you critically is sitting to your immediate right and he cant raise without a decent hand when you are acting after him so you could pretty much raise/shove every hand though I think I would be looking at least having something playable so suited or unsuited connectors, Broadway cards, K high, one gappers etc.

It's so opponent-depended,but I prefer raise/call or raise/cbet
If we are push,range of call is so bad-we knocked-out a lot of worse hands -- but better hands calls

With just under 20bb here with AQs I think that pushing is fine but probably a little bit optimistic. A lot of the time you will pick up the blinds but any time any one has a pp or AK they will probably call you. Depending on your stats if your loose enough you may be able to get called by worst but this is unlikely.

I would play it with a min raise and then decide based on the flop how you want to play it from there.

def cbet 2/3 of the pot 100% of the time though. if you face any aggression back make your decision based on your hand strengh

Be careful guys, the effective stack is only 9bb, not 20 !

So obviously it's a jam with AQs, r/c is a complete nonsense, everything that 3bet you would have call a shove, but sometimes you will make fold hands who could have called a shove, because a raise looks scary.

And don't shove ATC here, you don't have a lot of Fold Equity, they will call with a wide range.

My range is something like that : 22+, A2s+, K6s+, Q8s+, J8s+, T8s+, 98s, 87s, A2o+, K9o+, QTo+, JTo
