Full Tilt Poker, $40/80 No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 6 Players
Hand Converter by Pokerhand.org

Board:
SB: $1,115
BB: $1,530
UTG: $1,360
UTG+1: $6,345
Hero (CO): $1,315
Button: $1,835

Dealt to Hero (CO) Q♠ A♣

Pre-flop:
(2 folds), Hero raises to $200, Button raises to $650, (3 folds), Button returns $450

This seems like quite a standard raise/fold (especially against his very valuey-looking raise) even though i'm kinda shortstacked. i'm not pot committed or anything am I? Would you guys 4betshove AQs or AKo here?
(or is it TT+ AK+ as it usually seems to be...)

I would normally shove here, we are 16 BB deep. What were the reads on the button, loose or tight ?

BU is unknown, had been playing somewhat tight. First time he had 3bet all game.

Yeah.. I think AK TT+ looks good. Maybe AK JJ+.

the re-raise instead of a shove is really strong here with his stack. I would consider calling a shove against someone spewy, but i agree with generally stacking off with AK/TT+

Standard raise/fold here imo, his raise looks super strong. You're not pot comitted at all imo.

What's the raise/shove range here vs unknown?

there is always a bigger fish

TT+, AK. I prefer minraising my full range here but if people are flatting minraises preflop too often then 200 is fine.
