Came across this one from a while ago and it struck me as pretty interesting:

BTN: $29.32 (117.3 bb)
SB: $28.40 (113.6 bb)
Hero (BB): $58.29 (233.2 bb)
UTG: $53.73 (214.9 bb)
MP: $176.95 (707.8 bb)
CO: $61.54 (246.2 bb)
Preflop: Hero is BB with A
T
Q
J
UTG calls $0.25, 2 folds, BTN calls $0.25, SB completes,
Hero raises to $1.25, UTG calls $1, BTN calls $1, SB calls $1.00
Flop: ($5) 8

(4 players)
SB checks, Hero checks,
UTG bets $4.79,
BTN raises to $19.16,
SB folds,
Hero raises to $57.04 and is all-in,
UTG folds, BTN calls $8.91 and is all-in
Turn: ($65.93) Q
(2 players, 2 are all-in)
River: ($65.93) 6
(2 players, 2 are all-in)
Results: $65.93 pot ($2.00 rake)
Vs. a range of T7xx,57xx,89xx,88xx,99xx,66xx for both villains we are 36%, which winning, however vs UTG we would have 41% which is not enough to stack off as we need 50% in a HU side pot (i dont think the profit of the main pot makes up for the loss of the side pot, didnt do the math though). Given that this range is probably too wide, I now think that a fold is correct, though it's probably close.
Thoughts? Also what if btn and utg had different stack sizes?
