    Fold. This is a marginal spot and a better spot could be chosen. I give bfitzer a range of JJ+ here. If you call you're putting in 1/8 your stack and if the flop comes all under cards u find yourself in a real puke spot. the benefit of a call would be that you have position on these players, but i wouldn't risk it to set mine.

    I'm prolly folding JJ and maybe possibly QQ...not really sure. I can't see shoving being +EV, and I don't like calling, especially with an utg raiser and an utg+2 caller still to act behind me...

    if you don't think he's capable of making a squeeze play its a pretty standard fold.

    With all this action prior, and being new to the table, this is a pretty easy fold imo.

    unless these guys were real aggressive the only hands you can really play are QQ+

    UTG raiser, EP flatter, then a cheap reraise from another player... recipe for disaster for you

    UTG and UTG+1 involved. If he's squeezing he has downs. TT against the early action is bad enough - TT facing a big raise and having the UTG and UTG+1 people left to act behind it is worthless trash.
