I've recently returned to poker (7 years out) recreational MTT's, I was a micro/low grinder in the good days.
$33 big fish, hero is 4/17 ($166, locked up) UTG with AKhh 41bb stack and raise to 2.2bb. Image, probably tight/passive
Villain UTG+1 45 2/17 bb raises to 6.7bb, folds to hero.
My concern here is playing OOP against a decent player, recently got me off 2 pots when I'm OOP, also $2.6k up top.
I don't love a shove but it takes post flop out of the equasion and I could take a decent pot here.
Flatting seems passive but I could peel and evaluate.
4 betting would put nearly half my stack in and I'm jamming any flop.
I was stuck in 3 minds and wanting 1st place.
Go easy on me, There's a mountain to climb and I haven't reached base camp.
