Depends on your read of the UTG's range. His M is only 4; with a lot of players, I find that a raise (rather than a shove) in this situation is indicative of a huge hand.

You're going to be blinded off quickly yourself if you don't move, and TT is a very strong hand. I guess I'd grimace and move all-in.

is the bubble mr/fold a thing used at the 3.40's?

either way i think we fold unless bb and sb are super nits and it still has to be close.

call all day at the $3.40s

this guy is raising because he has no clue about FE, not because he has FPS

You cannot call this spot for christ sake. Its push or fold depending on whether you have FE against raiser, what range he will call with and what the BB is likely to overcall with as well.

Reads would help, but in a 3.4 this is a clear shove IMO. You would be amazed how many guys just fold to the reraise, and you still have a really good chance to be ahead if he doesn't. I would like to check in SNGWiz though, but i'm currently at work.

BTW, Jd probably wrote call instead of shove, I would be amazed he would like a flat call here, an obvious horrible move.

sry, I meant push. He will often call with Ax here and I like that race, especially as it leaves us as big stack vs. two small stacks and victory is >>>likely.
