SH AQo, BTN vs BB squeeze

I prefer betting here. Villain has a perfect spot for a squeeze. He has done it before so I like to put pressure on him.
I think fold flop is ok.

Pre you could 4bet but I don't think calling is bad either.
Flop is ok.

A 4bet could easily fit in there, decent blockers, position, blind war

If sb is a fish I prefer calling preflop. If he is not a bad player I will 4bet.

If SB is a fish we should 4b. Our hand is not so good mw.

I agree. If SB is a fish he probably will call with a weaker range.

Would we 4bet for value or as a bluff? i.e. Should we call his shove?

BB seems to have quite wide 3bet range in this small sample. I think AQo might beat his range and we want to play this heads up and make SB fold. I guess we can call it a value 4bet but I wouldn't call a shove.

It is a bluff 4b. If he pushes we are done as he will not push less than JJ+, AK.
We cannot call.

If we consider it a value 4bet, but don't plan to call a shove, then we expect to be called by worse, which would rarely happen, imo, because I don't see players squeeze and call 4bets oop very often. If we 4bet for value, I think we have to call a shove.

Then it is a bit difficult to decide at least for me. I would 4bet this only because I want to play this heads up rather than multiway. Otherwise this would be a standard call for me. If this is a bluff 4bet our 4betting range would look weird?

Not necessarilly, I believe. There are some situations in which we 4bet bluff AQo, like UTG vs BTN. So, maybe in this situation we can 4bet KK+ for value and AQo,AQs as a bluff. I don't like it, though. I like calling more.

Maybe calling this would be ok too. I think we can beat villains multiway too and SB doesn't necessarily call

Noth8ng difficult here. You 4b but do not call a shove- it is a bluff.

We 4b QQ+, AK for value here. AQo is a bluff 4b and we should do it.

We end up not having a call range and our 4bet range would be very tight or very bluff heavy. From these positions villains 3bet range should be wide and our hand should have decent equity. If our equity is good here I don't think we can call it purely a bluff.

With a player, still to act, you do not need a call range.
If you insist on having one - JJ-99, AQs...
