Preflop raise size is way too big....a min raise will get the same result as a 3.35x raise 80% of the time.

In general, this late in the tourney, you should never have to open more for more than 2.5x.

Once you have raised 3.35x...you should almost never consider folding in this spot with AQ. With your stack size relative to the blinds, it's virtually impossible to get away from this hand no matter what you do.

Definatly call the push.

I dunno about the 2.5x raise thing, i think that is player specific. When im deep in tourneys i vary my raise amounts hugely, which helps me accomplish various things i am trying to do.

So i guess 3.5x is a little large, but i dont see a problem with a standard raise amount here.
