Poker Stars, $1.32 Buy-in (60/120 blinds, 15 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: 2,110 (17.6 bb)
Hero (BB): 1,953 (16.3 bb)
UTG: 1,722 (14.4 bb)
MP: 1,685 (14 bb)
CO: 2,822 (23.5 bb)
BTN: 3,208 (26.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A♥: Q♠:
2 folds, CO raises to 360, BTN folds, SB calls 300, Hero ?????

CO is 32/26 over 37 hands
SB is 20/16 over 25 hands

Is this always a shove??? With fairly sensible ranges for villians AJs, AQo seem to be the lowest aces to shove. Sound about right?

Thanks for any advice you can give.

Against a loose open from the CO is this an ideal spot to shove here.
Only if you have some kind of sizing tells I wouldn’t shove here.

Why you would fold this hand?

For 9-max i shove this with AKx when pot gets pretty big preflop (say 40%+ of my stack), especially when i have good fold equity and i have bad position post-flop. You have both here as your stack is big enough.
On 6-max i suppose you can loosen up and make the same play with AQ.
CO raising late position and SB simply calls suggest no strong ranges.
Nevertheless, since the pot gets big and you act second post-flop i would just shove.
You stack is pretty good for this kind of shove, unless you have some weird reads (@SDK1987) like CO's AS is pretty low or SB rarely cold calls etc. as
