Fold...if he's on the button he has position. You cant call a reraise with AQs OOP when the raise is from a tight player...unless u hate winning that is.

Then you muck, curse under your breath at the donkeys at your table and wonder wtf you were doing by calling the $140.

Obvious fold.

A call is about 15% of your stack which is very bad. And you are not even guaranteed to see a flop for this price. If you are a good player, your goal should be to keep the pot small pre-flop so that you have more room to maneuver post flop. With so much money in the pot pre-flop (if you call), your options are very limited post flop. That is a bad situation for you. The more options available to you, the better chance you have of forcing your opponent(s) into making a mistake.

The only way you don't fold this hand is if both raisers are loose cannons and then you probably just push here out of position.
