8BB's against 2 people is a no-brainer fold. AQ is a hand where you wanna be the RAISER not the caller.

Fold is right. I think there is a page or two on it in one of Sklansky's books, "Do you pass the AQ test." It pretty much reviews this same scenario.

Fold. At best you're against two pocket pairs.

Both of these raisers have fairly deep stacks... you'd have to be crazy to get involved with them.
The fact that the second raiser isn't afraid of the first one should really scare you... you should put him on at least jacks, if not kings or aces.
Kliph: which book are you talking about? I'd like to read about this "AQ test.""Last night I stayed up late playing poker with tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died."

It's from the book, "Inside The Poker Mind." Page 33. Originally Posted by eclinchy

I have to disagree.
I think you should fold.
