I'd fold here. If it was obvious utg+2 was tilting really bad I'd go with a call

Think you can easily be versus one guy on TT one guy on JJ or one guy on AK looking at stats so probably worth a call imo.

I think you should call because of the odds, but idk its closer if just the UTG+1 guy shoves, but I'm prob not folding then either.

Pretty much what Regret$ said but you have to accept that you're trading busting more often for having a great chip position when you don't. If UTG+1 was a bit deeper, I might just fold.

Not folding this. If UTG + 1 had made it t450 or something then Id be more like to consider folding.

I'm calling one of them but not both, I fold here, the only way you can call is if you are confident they both hold each other's outs enough of the time (i.e. they are both on AK or AQ often enough.).

The thing that tips my decision here is your stack is a bit above starting stack, if you were down at say 1200 then I am much more inclined to stick it in and gamble.

I'm folding. 3-way I doubt this will end up in your favor. Even if u have them beat w/ 2 overs each. It's still a flip. And the odds that one of them has KK or AA is pretty good w/ that action imo. At the 6's they are not 3-4 betting light, ever. U still have a great stack if u fold. I usually just side w/ the safer play early on. Especially if it is for my stack. I'm only calling if I have a good ****** read on one or both of them.

Meh, very close spot. If BTN can do this with JJ+/AK you should get it in imo.
I don't think you can really exclude him having JJ in a $6 game.

As far as UTG+1 is concerned the 31/3 does mean he's tight with raising, but he's not so deep anymore so with his stack do you expect him to not shove AQs/AK/99+ here? But his stats he does not look good at all and those hands will look pretty to him with only 1k stack.

So I'd go with the queens here.
