Start of Day 2 - I just got to table, which seems to have mostly young guys prob a few pros, none of whom I recognize. I haven't played a hand yet and haven't seen anything from utg either. Blinds are 600/1200 300a (1st level) I have about 45k, utg covers.
Folds to me otb w JTo, I notice a limp set out in front of utg, but I didn't see him put out the chips. I ask the dealer if it's a limp b/c we are using different chips (than we did on day 1) and dealer says yes. Utg (looks like a young pro) then looks up and is surprised, laughs and says he thought he was the BB.
I then iso to 3600 and blinds fold quickly. Utg tanks for about a min then makes it 8400?

Fold. Call with good stuff, re-raise with real good stuff. Doesn't need to be more complicated than that. All the other stuff going on is irrelevant. Only your range is relevant.

I'd fold quickly. This might just be a soft angle shot because he actually DID know he limped with a monster.

say you thought you were SB and that the blinds were 3600/7200 then tank click back

Couldn't agree more

Fold quickly. Not happy against a LRR in general, but he appears to be a young pro, he says he thought he was posting the BB, and your hand is marginal anyway. Particularly, the fact that he claimed he didn't mean to limp would make me want to run. That claim also indicates he is an Internet player who never limps but LRRed UTG. Don't like his tank either.

Either he has AA or he is going through an elaborate act to make a 3-bet bluff play representing AA.
I am not sure I like the iso. It is probably the best play against a typical donk frequent limper. However, I am not sure it is best to automatically raise an apparent Internet pro who unexpectedly limps UTG. You probably would have folded JTo to an UTG raise. Think better to limp behind or fold initially.

Probably just limp behind the first time. Now guess how often he's angling. At 5% it's a call, at 70% it's a fold, and somewhere in between is the inflection point.
