$8 180 - FT facing UTG shove

    Poker Stars, $7.34 Buy-in (600/1,200 blinds, 125 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 8 Players
    Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #13292402

    CO: 5,064 (4.2 bb)
    BTN: 8,222 (6.9 bb)
    SB: 11,344 (9.5 bb)
    BB: 11,647 (9.7 bb)
    UTG+2: 14,805 (12.3 bb)
    Hero (MP1): 14,390 (12 bb)
    MP2: 14,641 (12.2 bb)
    MP3: 6,846 (5.7 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with ????
    UTG+2 raises to 14,680 and is all-in, 7 folds

    I only have 140 hands on UTG but I'm 90% sure he's a reg.

    What's our calling range here?

    I'd argue that it's got to be slightly tighter than normal given the smaller stacks at our table.

    I was thinking something like TT+, AQs, AK.

    Is this too tight?

    88/AJ+ for me vs most regs. Maybe 88/AQ+.

    TT+, AQs, AK seems good, regs shove tighter UTG imo.

    I think I like your range, it makes sense. I would add 99 to it.

    lol. I had 99 and folded.

    SnG Wiz says UTG has to shove 20% or more to make 99 a call... I think AQ is really close in this spot.

    in your position with those players behind It looks like a good fold.

    But I think your at worst in a coin flip situation here. I'd imagine he's only raising with any huge hand(QQ+, KK+) and not shoving. probably shoving AJ+ small pair+, I'd probably put my money in here figuring I'm flipping or fold and avoid a flip. so either way.

    Don't assume someone won't shove QQ+ here, if he's any good he'll shove all his hands here (unless he assumes that everybody behind him is a total noob).

    I think AQs is a fold as well. TT+, AK seems about right.

    This isn't FT. Against a relative unknown likely reg, I'm thinking ~AJs AQo 77.
