Hi,

I'm not really sure about this play, I decided to push my AQ vs 2 players with 27BB preflop but I'm not sure it was good. I looked it up in icimizer and it looks like it's not profitable against the ranges I put them on. What would you have done in this situation?

Here you dont push vs 2 players you push vs 5 players you have to think on those 3 players behind you also.
In this spot i dont think you can call because all players behind you can join the hand for such a small price.
I think i´m going to raise here something like 8-9 bb.

8bb is the maximum I would 3bet here with a 26bb stack. Otherwise you invest to much I think and I position it’s not too bad to make it a little smaller. Also you have still room to fold if something crazy will happen, but I expect shoving is +ev as well here with a TAG that’s raising and a fish that’s calling here.

Cheers,
