$11 buy in, 6 max, PPPoker tournament. We have 13 BB in BB, 4 handed, average stack is around 15 BB.

OTTH

Unknown opens 3 BB, SB calls, and we're in BB with T9s. What do we do here?

possibilities of hitting two pair, trips, a straight or flush on the flop are too low and opener and sb have better Tx and 9x in their range so flopping T or 9 won't put is in a good spot.

with such a small stack fold and wait for better spots

Meh, I'm calling and shoving any favorable flop: Tx/9x/draws.

I'd call a min raise but not 3x

I'm not trying to put you on the spot here, but I have to ask why not 3 bigs?

Do you think relative stack and position have a greater influence when while in the bb?

I guess what I'd like to ask is what is our range to make a call? 3x or 2.2x should have a range to make call?

Call. Is this a FT or 2 table spot?

We don't need to be in push/fold mode.

So at what stack depth are you at push/fold?

Fold. Your stack size / fold equity is precious here. Also, too good a chance someone busts in this spot.
