What about this one? I think it was a good play although when reviewing it thought it might be a bit loose.
I think I can reraise in position with AQo for value, however I don't think I gave villain enough credit for the raise in early position. I figured the range would include lower pocket pairs en face cards also, against which I am ahead. Then regarding calling the all in, is it too loose? Would you expect to be ahead here most of the time?

You need atleast 35% equity to make this a profitable call, I think we can give villain the range of 88+,ATs+,KJs+,AJo+,KQo for opening, and 99+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo for 4bet shoving, as the player is on a looser side. On both occasions you are very close to a coinflip so Id say its a call

I wouldn´t 3-bet a raise from early position with AQo. It´s a good hand, no doubt, but not a monster, not good enough to re-raise for value. I would just flat and see the flop. You are deep enough with 26.66 BB, so you can call and see the flop.

Villain 4-bet jams now upon your 3-bet and now it´s time to lay down your hand because:

*You are in the early stage of an SnG: You need at least 55 % equity against Villains range and considering that Villain raised in early position I don´t think we have enough equity
*We are 26.66 BB deep: no need to jam and risk our whole stack, unless with AA and KK

It is true that you need about 35% equity with pot-odds 2:1 but in SnGs there is the risk premium! At this stage about 5-6 % which makes the call unprofitable.

I don’t think it’s too profitable to 3bet this hand against an UTG range. Don’t forget we have only 15 hands on him and I think the 4bet range of 99+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo seems optimistic as well. I would give him a tighter range like AK+ and TT+ or so and I wouldn’t be surprised it’s even tighter sometimes.

I think it’s also smart to remove the outcome of the hand next time or put them in to a spoiler and I expect this is the bottom of his shoving range.
