Super Tuesday, we are 40 players before bubble, 63 out of 102 left.
Hero opens 2,1 bb AQo from mp+1 with effective 19 bb stack.
Villain on co 3bets 2,2x out of 30 bb stack. 3bet number is 10 pct on low number of hands.
Hero calls or fold?
If called on Q high board with 3 clubs on the flop, shove cbet from villain?
thanks

AQ plays great against a 10% range (his range is probably wider now btw), but not so well against his call-a-4bet-shove range, so call pre is fine.
Take you time post flop. Many players just close their eyes and bundle chips in on the flop with NFD or 2/3 NFD or TP or whatever just because SPR is low. There is still a street or two to induce a mistake.
If we have a Q high flop all clubs we are going to be ahead most of the time against his range. However, with a low SPR, he is going to the river anyway with a high club, and weīre not folding out sets or overpairs. So letīs just call.
We can get away on the turn if another club hits. I donīt expect him to bluff with no club much in that scenario. We have too many broadway clubs in our flop flat range.
But, if this guy has A3hh, TJs, AT, KJ, with or without a club, donīt take away his rope.
