Just ran pretty deep in a $4K GTD. It's mostly and all in party and this point. I've stacked up to 100K at 4/8 blinds. EP raises 3x, I find myself with AQ. I knew he'd be strong here, not raising much, but I felt being so low, I had to push. Think I should've thought about instead of snap pushing, maybe find a fold here?

6-handed and he's in MP - would you consider folding to this raise from the hijack at a full table?

You have to take spots like this to put yourself into good position for a final table run.

Shove all day.

This is a pretty perfect spot for you. Just unlucky he picked up a big hand. Can never fold AQo with this stack size. Well played!

Nice run! I think you can jam something like 88/99+, AJs+, AQo+

Thanks for the replies, guys. I folded AJ utg and A7 mp a few hands earlier, ended up dodging bullets both times. I suppose that's why I was questioning this all in, but I guess you just have to go with it in that spot. Good luck out there.
