No Limit Holdem Tournament
$6.00+$0.50
9 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG (1690)
UTG+1 (1500)
MP1 (1500)
MP2 (1420)
Hero (MP3) (1500)
CO (1500)
BTN (1490)
SB (1420)
BB (1480)

Blinds: 10/20

Pre-flop: (30, 9 players) Hero is MP3 A♥ Q♥
UTG calls 20, 2 folds, MP2 calls 20, Hero raises to 120, 3 folds, BB goes all-in 1,480, UTG folds, MP2 folds, Hero ???

This is the 3rd hand or so. I believe he would make a standard 3bet if he had a really good hand, but it's probably bad to call here because it's very likely his range is mostly composed by medium pocket pairs. What's a good calling range here?

I think its not wrong to fold this preflop (depends on your postflopskills), if played, easy easy fold.

nh.
i would fold to a standard 3-bet as well. not sure what kind of hands they are 3-betting on the 6,50s though but you just won´t hit often enough and if you do you will often win small pots (because he folds his smaller pockets) or lose big ones (because you are dominated by QQ-AA or AK)
