    Hi a

    Tbh with csi=8 TT is clearly a shove from BTN and AQo is similarly a clear call to my mind. However if this is close to  cash laddering and there are things called bubble factors with will increase the odds needed to call because of icm considerations. However these hands are so strong that uness there is a micro stack here and a large cash jump then i doubt if it could affect the shove or the call.
    TT was ul considering he hit his ten but AQo may feel he was ul not to be up against say AJ or KQ even as both should mathematically shove. That's poker and you need luck at some stage to win.

    You got got 12xBB so you're getting it in one way or another.

    Either open jam,

    Or if you got aggressive players after you, min-raise and call off their jam.
