Villains are typical 10r donkeys. Can I fold here?

Poker Stars $10+$1 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t200/t400 Blinds + t50 - 9 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

UTG+2: t19170 M = 18.26
MP1: t12198 M = 11.62
MP2: t23678 M = 22.55
CO: t7350 M = 7
BTN: t24255 M = 23.10
SB: t21746 M = 20.71
BB: t23311 M = 22.20
UTG: t44720 M = 42.59
Hero (UTG+1): t7740 M = 7.37

Pre Flop: (t1050) Hero is UTG+1 with Q

1 fold, Hero raises to t980, 5 folds, SB raises to t21696 all in, BB calls t21296

Is BB's range anything other than QQ+?

Not with your stack, call.

I'd snap call this.

Also, BB's flat call isn't really a flat call; everyone is all-in. In another spot, his flat might be a tell of a pretty strong hand that is hoping to induce additional action, but here it doesn't mean anything really.

Your thread title: QQ in 10r.

A better name: What dance should I have done as I called here?

Sb overshove AK play . Bb calling with AQ 88-JJ.

Call and load up after A hits flop

Yeah, can't see a fold here. That overshove does look like AK or JJ more than KK+. If the caller had KK+, just a cooler.

I call and half the time suprised cuz its 8's, a quarter of the time its AJ-AK, and the rest is QQ+. No way we are finding a fold button here, but I can't say I like seeing him call of 20k with 22k in the well.

It's just a fact of MTT's that your not ALWAYS going to be getting your money in ahead, but you want to put yourself in spots that are going to win these pots in the LR.

Yeah, I agree. I would only be worried about racing vs. AK, but nothing you can do in that spot with your stack... you NEED to make that call.
