This is a $28 Tourney on WPN.  Payout is 12.5K with 2600 up top.  We are ITM with 39 left.

 

Villian 1 – has 33bb with stats of 28/22/13  60% pfr from ep (3 of 5)  I only have 18 hands on this guy.

Villian 2 – has 24bb with stats of 33/21/10  193 hands

 

Blinds are 2000/1000

Villian 1 min raise utg

Villian 2 calls from utg+2

Hero is on the button with AQsuited.

Hero shoves all-in.

Does anyone just call and see flop?

There are some info missing imo, i guess you cover both stacks (it actually makes a BIG difference if you have 34bb, 45bb or 80+bb), you dont talk about the blinds (other thing that you need to consider) + since we cant estract reliable info from the stats you should write “the dinamics” at the table (how villain view hero, how hero views OR, how hero views flatter)

Anyhow I really dont like shoving 33bb at all … Are you gonna jam aces for 33bb on the botton ?? i guess not so If you wanna get it in pf you should 3b/call…Now the problem comes whether getting it in pf is the best option we have…which i think is not.

AQs plays pretty well post flop and since i consider myself decent post flop, with the info you gave, to me this is a call.

agree with Riar……….  how many bb's did you shove?

If you have 20bb's or less……….  I'm cool with it. I shove all day.  Unless you know the players and think something is up because they only play huge hands.   If you have 28, 34, 45 bb's………. no.

 

Are you playing to win or get a few more pay jumps………..  How active has Vill 1 been? How good is he? in your mind.

Blinds are 2000/1000

I am 26 BB deep.  

I am playing to win not jump up in payout.

 

Villian 1 had been very active from early positions and have seen him fold to a 3-bet pre.  Villian 2 had been pretty passive.   Looked like a good spot to squeeze and pick up 6BB, would have been a 20% increase to my stack.

Hmmmm, I would jam.  Just depends on what you think of both players.  The way you described them, I agree.  SHOVE and go get a top 3.

Thanks for the feedback. Villian 1 had 1010 and villian 2 had JJ.  I did not improve.

I prefer flatting here.  You are up against pretty strong ranges (18 hands is worth pretty close to 0) and your hand doesn't actually fare too well against them.  You are unlikely to fold both players out and when you are called you are always behind (the dead money makes it okay to get it in against JJ, but not AK or KK).  You have position, and if the flop comes A or Q high your equity goes way up, whereas any other flop it goes way down.  What do you have to lose?
