By no means a snap, but a sight-call. Villain wont ever be super-super-loose here being 3rd in chips UTG+1 versus an UTG open and a 2bb stack in there.
If he's a decent reg I'm calling, his range might be capped as well, we're 6 handed and he should recognise we're opening wide here. We aren't in bad shape if we lose, either. This is going to come down to his stats, too.
I think it's really close personally, I don't really want to be flipping for so many chips especially when I have the chip lead but yet again I think you're ahead majority of the time to make the call. Just depends how comfortable you are with the chip lead and whether you feel like you have an edge if you fold this hand.
I like this post ^. It's so borderline, if you think you have a big edge (people playing too passively or spewing their chips away) then fold, if you're at a tough table with thinking regs then call. But you could go either way really.
