well top 5 get a $26 token. the final table is 15 hands in and the two others in the pot were at another table before that. the limper has something probably a pocker pair the small blind just has odds to call.right now i think i'm either a little behind or way behind.do i push pre-flop?? after the flop i decide to check raise.should i bet right out???after i push and the other guy calls should the guy on the draw push as well???or is the check it down way better??

I would probably have made a small raise first to see what exactly is happening. Alarm bells also ring when someone bets and the other person calls - you know have to realise the other 2 have at least some kind of hand....one possibley with a weaker Queen, the other on a flush draw. I deffo wouldnt be all in here, raise first, if they push back over the top you seriously have to now question if you are in front.
the bastard just calling with QQ makes it complicated.....since this is a token game i either go all in, or fold.....im not really trying to win in these....now the problem is that guy limped with QQ....i think your doomed....this is just gunna happen...however, if he hesitated before limping i would fold this hand..cause thats generally a tip
You need to put in a raise preflop with AQ and a limper in the pot. As played I would bet out 2/3 of the pot, and probably play for stacks if I was played back at.
i was watching this guy on the next table for a while but some thing told me he has a hand. but seeing AQs i was too conserned about how to play it whether to push or check pre-flop that i totally missed that. i even posted this hand on another site as well. NICE CATCH. thats why i'm so sure he got a hand here. still can't see getting away here post flop.
