I think the point that Penguinfan is trying to make is that this doesn’t seem like a particularly skillful move and one would expect more from high stakes players.
I think what Penguinfan is overlooking is the metagame aspect of short-handed high buyin NL, particularly when it comes to aggression. Metagame is my poker vocabulary word of the month. ![]() |

In a vacuum, the plays may seem strange, but there may be factors that led to the scenario that we may not be aware of.
IMO, the AQo play is the weaker of the two, unless he has some history that suggests the reraise may be with a weaker hand. Once the all-in bet is made, the AKs hand is getting better than 2:1 to call. He'd need some pretty solid evidence that the push could only mean AA or KK to fold AKs in that situation. Because even if it means as tight a range as (and I doubt its that tight a range) AA-QQ, AK, AQ, his AKs wins half the time getting 2:1.
