I folded mostly because I had a nice stack. I think TT is good enough to put it in here but I wanted to hear what others thought. What do you call it off with in this spot to a super3bet?

What are the stakes? What read do you have on the players?

Even at the low limit $10 games I play this looks like a clear fold.

CO looks like AK or JJ but could also be QQ, KK or even AA.

We have no idea what UTG+2 has.

We are most likely either a coin flip or behind... why would we risk our whole stack when we can sit back and wait for a spot where we have both a) a good hand; b) fold equity; and c) a better chance of getting our chips in heads up rather than the risk of 3 way.

I'm only calling with KK, AA or on rare occasions QQ.

No reads. I really think TT is the best hand here but if you've seen a sick overraise like this with JJ+ I guess I could be wrong.

This is a pretty standard fold. SSMTT villains have ridic tight 3-bet ranges.

Fold. You have nothing invested and are likely to be dominated.

I guess I should start playing higher, where my urge to cold 4bet shove TT could actually not be horrible.
