Hi guys!
Got 106 hands on this guy, VPIP/PFR 43/18, F3Bet/3Bet 0/2,3. I know the 3bet% is really low, but if this is not a right call, when do you call with AQs all-in preflop?

Thanks!

I think AQ is a fold even vs 50bb stack, as long we don't have an info that villain is doing that with a wide range (for example, someone tilts and shoves every hand). Would probably call just AK, QQ+ when I see someone doing that for the first time.

Villain didn't 3b for 100+ hands and now bah - AI?... We may fold and move on.

Villain played this very well. His options are to raise to, say, 12 bb or to shove. AK is ideal for shoving. You can find a fold there.

To me 3b shove seems pretty strong, yes, you are totally right, his 3b is pretty low. Just fold it. I guess we can call with AQs vs 40-50 bb shove if your opponent seems steaming and shove every hand hand he plays in a row, but in this case I don't think that is an option.

Just to note - rake 4% => 49,2 + your 49.2 + 0,4(from SB) => Pot = 94,8 => 46,2/94,8 = 0,46% (required equiry), but your equity vs 3,32% (his 2,3, I just took a little bit wider) range (JJ+,AQs+,AKo) = 33,69 => So, folding is +EV.
