There are 3 limpers and I'm on the button with AQo. My stack is about 3600 and the blinds are 100. I raise to $600. The SB moves all in with 2200. One crazy caller in front eith about 10K. What hands do you need to call this bet? Or do you push here?

I folded. All-in had 99 and the crazy player had QJs (and won with a straight afterthe flop came 985.

I'm trying to work on my survival skills. They are paying off, kinda. I manage to get to the final table or two with a low stack and then donk off my chips with A9o or something.

Hello AstroCat!

Personally, I think that you've done the right decision by folding. You should not go All-in if two or more players have done that already unless you have a monster hand. A Q is not that good since your opponents might have much better cards like AA KK AK. Even the smallest pair like 22 can beat your hand if neither A nor Q shows up on the table.

I think that you made the right decision. :)

I totally agree! The chances to get beaten in this situation are too high. Your card is not good enough to play this hand further.
