Live 2/5 blind game

Been playing for an hour or so, I'm raising almost any2 in the CO and btn and winning taking down pots with 1-cbet. I already stacked off once wth trips (yeaaaaaa)...then this hand comes up. My image is Laggy (and maybe tilty) to say the leasT:

Hero dealt AQos in the CO
5 limpers to me, I limp b/c the SB has been squeezing light (54os, pocket 3s, etc...) for the last hour and I'm gonna repop the shit out of him if he tries it again.

btn limps & SB raises to $35

5 callers to hero

Hero thinks for 60 seconds and shoves for $325 more

thoughts?

...hero covers the first 5 limpers, only SB covers hero as he luckboxed his way into a two-outer against some poor guy and is sitting $1100 behind...

effective stack of hero is $330 @ the start of the hand

1st 5 limpers range from $100 behind to $250 behind

I would like this play more if you were holding A-K, though i still do like it. But, if SB has been reraising light PF then you probably won't get called by him (and i wouldn't fear the 5 limp callers who definitely increase your incentive for the limp-reraise.

Range of hands that I suppose would call your LAGGY limp-reraise (assuming FR)
10-10+, A-K
1). you are dominated by three of those hands -- Q-Q, A-A, A-K
2). you are 30% with one of those hands -- K-K
3). you race with two of those hands -- 10-10, J-J

therefore i would call your play a nice bluff raise, and i would think with the 5 limp-callers(whom you likely race with or dominate) this play has a positive expectation. nh.

Also, the ~$200 in the pot before your $325 shove makes this especially profitable. You only have to be not dominated 50% of the time to make this a profitable call, and i don't think you are dominated nearly that often considering SB's image.

What kind of nutjobs are you playing with where 5 limpers call a 7X BB raise?

Nice play, I like it.
